Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Atlassian Doxygen for Atlassian Confluence 1.3.0 (Atlassian Confluence Plugin). Affected by this issue is the function getTemporaryDirectory. The manipulation of the argument tempId with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-22.
