BTCPay Server through 1.0.7.0 suffers from directory traversal, which allows an attacker with admin privileges to achieve code execution. The attacker must craft a malicious plugin file with special characters to upload the file outside of the restricted directory.
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.
