The ganga-devs/ganga repository before 8.5.10 on GitHub allows absolute path traversal because the Flask send_file function is used unsafely.
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.
