Path Traversal vulnerability in Softdial Contact Center of Sytel Ltd. This vulnerability allows an attacker to manipulate the ‘id’ parameter of the ‘/softdial/scheduler/load.php’ endpoint to navigate beyond the intended directory. This can allow unauthorised access to sensitive files outside the expected scope, posing a security risk.
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.
