A remote code execution vulnerability was found in CivetWeb (embeddable web server/library). Due to a directory traversal issue, an attacker is able to add or overwrite files that are subsequently executed which lead to impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the application.

Out-of-bounds Read in the sendssifile function in civetweb.c in CivetWeb through 1.10 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service or Information Disclosure via a crafted SSI file.
