Skytable is a NoSQL database with automated snapshots and TLS. Versions prior to 0.5.1 are vulnerable to a a directory traversal attack enabling remotely connected clients to destroy and/or manipulate critical files on the host's file system. This security bug has been patched in version 0.5.1. There are no known workarounds aside from upgrading.
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.
