Absolute path traversal vulnerability in the WebCacheCleaner ActiveX control 1.3.0.3 in SonicWall SSL-VPN 200 before 2.1, and SSL-VPN 2000/4000 before 2.5, allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via a full pathname in the argument to the FileDelete method.
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.
