Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in CA Total Defense. Affected is an unknown code block in the library CA.Itm.Server.ManagementWS.dll of the component Web Service. The manipulation of the argument GUID 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:
