Description

EPiServer contains a flaw that may lead to an unauthorized information disclosure. The issue is triggered when an attacker passes a value to the "root" parameter of the linkurl.asp modue which contains a directory-traversing path (i.e. ../), which will disclose any file referenced on the filesystem; this will result in a loss of confidentiality.
