Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Siemens Mendix Studio Pro 10, Mendix Studio Pro 10.12, Mendix Studio Pro 10.18, Mendix Studio Pro 10.6, Mendix Studio Pro 11, Mendix Studio Pro 8 and Mendix Studio Pro 9. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown part. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22.
