Details
A vulnerability was found in HP Photo Digital Imaging Activex Control 2.0.0.133. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown functionality in the library hpqxml.dll of the component ActiveX Control. 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, and integrity. The summary by CVE is:
Absolute path traversal in a certain ActiveX control in hpqxml.dll 2.0.0.133 in Hewlett-Packard (HP) Photo Digital Imaging allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via the argument to the saveXMLAsFile method.
