Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Novell ZENworks 6.2. This affects an unknown code. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. 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. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

Directory traversal vulnerability in (a) PatchLink Update Server (PLUS) before 6.1 P1 and 6.2.x before 6.2 SR1 P1 and (b) Novell ZENworks 6.2 SR1 and earlier allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files and directories via a .. (dot dot) sequence in the (1) action, (2) agentid, or (3) index parameters to dagent/nwupload.asp, which are used as pathname components.
