Directory traversal vulnerability in a support component in the web interface in VMware Studio 2.0 public beta before build 1017-185256 allows remote attackers to upload files to arbitrary locations via unspecified vectors.
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.
