A local file inclusion vulnerability exists in the installation functionality of Advantech WebAccess/SCADA 9.0.1. A specially crafted application can lead to information disclosure. An attacker can send an authenticated HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability.
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.
