Directory traversal vulnerability in Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client 4.0(2049) allows remote head-end systems to write to arbitrary files via a crafted configuration attribute, aka Bug ID CSCut93920.
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.
