Directory traversal vulnerability in McAfee Web Gateway (MWG) 7.4.x before 7.4.1, 7.3.x before 7.3.2.6, and 7.2.0.9 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via a crafted request to the web filtering port.
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.
