NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream psensor package and not the psensor package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The create_response function in server/server.c in Psensor before 1.1.4 allows Directory Traversal because it lacks a check for whether a file is under the webserver directory.
