Directory traversal vulnerability in includes/download.php in the JoomlaWorks AllVideos (Jw_allVideos) plugin 3.0 through 3.2 for Joomla! allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a ./../.../ (modified dot dot) in the file parameter.
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.
