Directory traversal vulnerability in MODx Evolution 1.0.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors related to AjaxSearch, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-1427.
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.
