Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions UltraEdit version 14.00b

Description A directory traversal issue exists in the FTP and SFTP clients, allowing remote FTP servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files. This can be achieved by including a .. (dot dot) or a .. (dot dot backslash) in a response to a LIST command.
