Directory traversal vulnerability in Perforce Server 2008.1 allows remote authenticated users to create arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the argument to the "p4 add" command.
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.
