CWE-22

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

BaseStableLikelihood: High

Description

The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
