Absolute path traversal vulnerability in tools/pdfViewer.pl in Koha before 3.8.23, 3.10.x before 3.10.13, 3.12.x before 3.12.10, and 3.14.x before 3.14.3 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
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.
