NVIDIA Mellanox OS, ONYX, Skyway, and MetroX-3 XCC contain a vulnerability in the web support, where an attacker can cause a CGI path traversal by a specially crafted URI. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to escalation of privileges and information disclosure.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize '.../...//' (doubled triple dot slash) sequences that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory.
