A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in iDB 0.2.5 Pre-alpha. Affected is an unknown function. The manipulation of the argument skin 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, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Directory traversal vulnerability in inc/profilemain.php in Game Maker 2k Internet Discussion Boards (iDB) 0.2.5 Pre-Alpha SVN 243 allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the skin parameter in a settings action to profile.php.
