Directory traversal vulnerability in AFP Server in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.3 allows remote attackers to list a share root's parent directory, and read and modify files in that directory, 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.
