Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions HP LoadRunner version 9.5

Description A directory traversal issue exists in the Persits.XUpload.2 ActiveX control (XUpload.ocx) due to the handling of .. (backwards slash dot dot) sequences. This allows remote attackers to create arbitrary files via the third argument to the MakeHttpRequest method.

Recommendations For HP LoadRunner version 9.5, consider restricting access to the MakeHttpRequest method until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the MakeHttpRequest method with untrusted input to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
