Twiki · Twiki · CVE-2006-4294
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
TWiki versions 4.0.0 through 4.0.4
**Description**
A directory traversal issue exists, allowing remote attackers to read arbitrary files. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the `filename` parameter.
**Recommendations**
For TWiki versions 4.0.0 through 4.0.4, consider restricting access to the viewfile functionality until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the `filename` parameter with .. (dot dot) sequences to minimize the risk of exploitation.
