Dell PowerProtect DM5500 version 5.15.0.0 and prior contain an Arbitrary File Delete via Path Traversal vulnerability. A remote attacker with high privileges could potentially exploit this vulnerability to deletion of arbitrary files stored on the server filesystem.
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.
