Description |
Maxthon Browser contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to read and write from/to files outside of the plug-in's directory. The issue is due to the readFile() and writeFile() API functions not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../), resulting in a loss of confidentiality and integrity.
