Directory traversal vulnerability in the Session Server in Attachmate Verastream Host Integrator (VHI) 6.0 through 7.5 SP 1 HF 1 allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files via a crafted message.
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.
