This advisory addresses a file placement vulnerability that could allow assets to be uploaded to unintended directories on the server. * Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory: A vulnerability exists in the asset upload functionality that allows users to upload files to directories outside of the intended temporary 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.
