Directory traversal vulnerability in OpenBase 10.0.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to create files with arbitrary contents via a .. (dot dot) in the first argument to the GlobalLog stored procedure. NOTE: this can be leveraged to execute arbitrary code using CVE-2007-5926.
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.
