SphinxSearch in Sphinx Technologies Sphinx through 3.1.1 allows directory traversal (in conjunction with CVE-2019-14511) because the mysql client can be used for CALL SNIPPETS and load_file operations on a full pathname (e.g., a file in the /etc directory). NOTE: this is unrelated to CMUSphinx.

Path Traversal: '/../filedir' vulnerability in Neutron IP Camera allows Absolute Path Traversal.This issue affects IP Camera: before b1130.1.0.1.

A vulnerability in the web services interface of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct directory traversal attacks and read sensitive files on a targeted system. The vulnerability is due to a lack of proper input validation of URLs in HTTP requests processed by an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request containing directory traversal character sequences to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to view arbitrary files within the web services file system on the targeted device. The web services file system is enabled when the affected device is configured with either WebVPN or AnyConnect features. This vulnerability cannot be used to obtain access to ASA or FTD system files or underlying operating system (OS) files.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. In versions up to and including 26.0, an unauthenticated API endpoint (`APIName=locale`) concatenates user input into an `include` path with no canonicalization or whitelist. Path traversal is accepted, so arbitrary PHP files under the web root can be included. In our test this yielded confirmed file disclosure and code execution of existing PHP content (e.g., `view/about.php`), and it *can* escalate to RCE if an attacker can place or control a PHP file elsewhere in the tree. As of time of publication, no patched versions are available.

Path traversal vulnerability in Chalemelon Power framework, affecting the getImage parameter. This vulnerability could allow a remote user to read files located on the server and gain access to sensitive information such as configuration files.

DEXT5Upload 2.7.1262310 and earlier is affected by Directory Traversal in handler/dext5handler.jsp. This could allow remote files to be downloaded via a dext5CMD=downloadRequest action with traversal in the fileVirtualPath parameter (the attacker must provide the correct fileOrgName value).

Salvo is a Rust web framework. Versions 0.39.0 through 0.89.2 have a Path Traversal and Access Control Bypass vulnerability in the salvo-proxy component. The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated external attacker to bypass proxy routing constraints and access unintended backend paths (e.g., protected endpoints or administrative dashboards). This issue stems from the encode_url_path function, which fails to normalize "../" sequences and inadvertently forwards them verbatim to the upstream server by not re-encoding the "." character. Version 0.89.3 contains a patch.

Flamingo (aka FlamingoIM) through 2020-09-29 allows ../ directory traversal because the only ostensibly unpredictable part of a file-transfer request is an MD5 computation; however, this computation occurs on the client side, and the computation details can be easily determined because the product's source code is available.

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.6.2, the /api/file/readDir interface was used to traverse and retrieve the file names of all documents under a notebook. Version 3.6.2 patches the issue.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of NEC ESMPRO Manager 6.42. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the GetEuaLogDownloadAction class. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to disclose information in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-9607.

In BASETech GE-131 BT-1837836 firmware 20180921, the web-server on the system is configured with the option “DocumentRoot /etc“. This allows an attacker with network access to the web-server to download any files from the “/etc” folder without authentication. No path traversal sequences are needed to exploit this vulnerability.

WWBN AVideo is an open source video platform. Prior to version 26.0, the HLS streaming endpoint (`view/hls.php`) is vulnerable to a path traversal attack that allows an unauthenticated attacker to stream any private or paid video on the platform. The `videoDirectory` GET parameter is used in two divergent code paths — one for authorization (which truncates at the first `/` segment) and one for file access (which preserves `..` traversal sequences) — creating a split-oracle condition where authorization is checked against one video while content is served from another. Version 26.0 contains a fix for the issue.

MLflow allowed arbitrary files to be PUT onto the server.

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.6.2, the Siyuan kernel exposes an unauthenticated file-serving endpoint under `/appearance/*filepath.` Due to improper path sanitization, attackers can perform directory traversal and read arbitrary files accessible to the server process. Authentication checks explicitly exclude this endpoint, allowing exploitation without valid credentials. Version 3.6.2 fixes this issue.

Mini Mouse 9.2.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access arbitrary system files and directories through crafted HTTP requests. Attackers can retrieve sensitive files like win.ini and list contents of system directories such as C:\Users\Public by manipulating file and path parameters.

Mini Mouse 9.3.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers to access sensitive system directories through the device information endpoint. Attackers can retrieve file lists from system directories like /usr, /etc, and /var by manipulating file path parameters in API requests.

A vulnerability in NLTK versions up to and including 3.9.2 allows arbitrary file read via path traversal in multiple CorpusReader classes, including WordListCorpusReader, TaggedCorpusReader, and BracketParseCorpusReader. These classes fail to properly sanitize or validate file paths, enabling attackers to traverse directories and access sensitive files on the server. This issue is particularly critical in scenarios where user-controlled file inputs are processed, such as in machine learning APIs, chatbots, or NLP pipelines. Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive files, including system files, SSH private keys, and API tokens, and may potentially escalate to remote code execution when combined with other vulnerabilities.

An issue was discovered in webp_server_go 0.4.0. There is a directory traversal vulnerability that can read arbitrary file information on the server.

liquidjs is a Shopify / GitHub Pages compatible template engine in pure JavaScript. Prior to 10.25.0, the layout, render, and include tags allow arbitrary file access via absolute paths (either as string literals or through Liquid variables, the latter require dynamicPartials: true, which is the default). This poses a security risk when malicious users are allowed to control the template content or specify the filepath to be included as a Liquid variable. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.25.0.
