Description

Artica contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the 'images.listener.php' script not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied via the 'mailattach' parameter. This directory traversal attack would allow the attacker to access arbitrary files.
