TorrentVolve 'deleteTorrent' Parameter Directory Traversal Vulnerability

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

Remote attackers can use a specially crafted request with directory-traversal sequences ('../') to delete arbitrary files in the context of the application. This may aid in further attacks.
