Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In May 2012 (Directory traversal)

Directory traversal vulnerability in Upload/engine.php in Chevereto 1.9.1 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the v parameter.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the captcha module in Pligg CMS before 1.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the captcha parameter to module.php, as demonstrated by cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.

The file-upload implementation in rfc1867.c in PHP before 5.4.0 does not properly handle invalid [ (open square bracket) characters in name values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (malformed $_FILES indexes) or conduct directory traversal attacks during multi-file uploads by leveraging a script that lacks its own filename restrictions.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the Manager service in the management console in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) 12.1 before 12.1 RU1-MP1 allows remote attackers to delete files via unspecified vectors.

Directory traversal vulnerability in mod/tools/em/class.em_unzip.php in the unzip library in TYPO3 4.2.x before 4.2.16, 4.3.x before 4.3.9, and 4.4.x before 4.4.5 allows remote attackers to write arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the TypoScript setup in TYPO3 4.2.x before 4.2.16, 4.3.x before 4.3.9, and 4.4.x before 4.4.5 allows remote authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors related to the "file inclusion functionality."

The fileDenyPattern functionality in the PHP file inclusion protection API in TYPO3 4.2.x before 4.2.16, 4.3.x before 4.3.9, and 4.4.x before 4.4.5 does not properly filter file types, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and access arbitrary PHP files, as demonstrated using path traversal sequences with %00 null bytes and CVE-2010-3714 to read the TYPO3 encryption key from localconf.php.
