Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Jon Hedley Alienform2 1.5. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown code block of the file af.cgi/alienform.cgi. The manipulation of the argument _browser_out/_out_file with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22.
