Description

EasyWeb FileManager contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to access arbitrary files or directory listings outside of the web path. The issue is due to the module not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../) supplied via the "pathext" variable. These activities require a valid administrator login, diminishing the severity of the attack.
