Discussion

TFTPUtil GUI TFTP GET Request Directory Traversal Vulnerability

TFTPUtil GUI is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

Exploiting this issue can allow an attacker to access arbitrary files outside of the TFTP server root directory. This can expose sensitive information that could help the attacker launch further attacks.

TFTPUtil GUI 1.2.0 and 1.3.0 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
