Directory traversal vulnerability in YelloSoft Pinky 1.0 for Windows allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a %5C (encoded backslash) in the URL.
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.
