The web interface of Symcon IP-Symcon before 6.3 (i.e., before 2023-05-12) allows a remote attacker to read sensitive files via .. directory-traversal sequences in the URL.
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.
