Description

ACTi Web Configurator contains a flaw related to the cgi-bin directory, that allows a remote attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../). This directory traversal attack would allow the attacker to read arbitrary files.
