Kyocera Mita Scanner File Utility upload directory traversal
| kmscanner-upload-directory-traversal (44718) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
The Kyocera Mita Scanner File Utility could allow a remote attacker to traverse directories on the system, caused by an error in the upload functionality. An attacker could send a specially-crafted file upload request containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) in the file name, which would allow the attacker to traverse directories and create or overwrite arbitrary files on the system.
