GHSA-v92g-xgxw-vvmm: Mako: Path traversal via double-slash URI prefix in TemplateLookup

TemplateLookup.get_template() is vulnerable to path traversal when a URI starts with // (e.g., //../../../secret.txt). The root cause is an inconsistency between two slash-stripping implementations:

• Template.__init__ strips one leading / using if/slice
• TemplateLookup.get_template() strips all leading / using re.sub(r"^\/+", "")

When a URI like //../../../../etc/passwd is passed:

1. get_template() strips all / → ../../../../etc/passwd → file found via posixpath.join(dir_, u)
2. Template.__init__ strips one / → /../../../../etc/passwd → normpath → /etc/passwd
3. /etc/passwd.startswith(..) → False → check bypassed
