CVE-2014-8114: Path Traversal

First published: Tue Dec 02 2014(Updated: )

It was discovered that the default implementation of FileUploadServlet and FileDownloadServlet provided by the UberFire Framework did not restrict the paths to which a file could be written or read from. In applications using this framework and exposing these servlets, a remote attacker could gain access to information stored in files accessible to the application container process, or execute arbitrary code by uploading malicious content.
