Absolute path traversal vulnerability in the translation module (translator.php) in SiteBar 3.3.8 allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via an absolute path in the dir parameter, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-5491.
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.
