Overview
An attacker could access arbitrary files and directories stored on the file system by manipulating files with dot-dot-slash (../) sequences and their variations or by using absolute file paths.
Note:
There is no indication that access to the filesystem beyond that of the application user can be achieved. So typical deployments will have only limited confidentiality impact from this vulnerability.
