Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PhotoAlbum version 0.9.9
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) attack, which is a path traversal attack that exploits the ability to access parent directories using the ../ notation. This can potentially lead to unauthorized access to sensitive files.
Recommendations
For PhotoAlbum version 0.9.9, consider restricting access to the explorer.php file until a patch is available, or apply a configuration change to prevent path traversal attacks, such as properly sanitizing user input to prevent the use of ../ in file paths.
