Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Barracuda Spam Firewall versions 3.1.16 through 3.1.17

Description A directory traversal issue exists, allowing remote attackers to read arbitrary files. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the f parameter of the img.pl file.

Recommendations For versions 3.1.16 and 3.1.17, consider restricting access to the img.pl file until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the f parameter in the img.pl file to minimize the risk of exploitation.
