Directory traversal vulnerability in the FTP client in Total Commander before 7.02 allows remote FTP servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via "..\" (dot dot backslash) sequences in a filename. NOTE: the "..\" are not displayed when the user lists files. NOTE: this can be leveraged for code execution by writing to a Startup folder.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
