Description

The HP CIFS Server contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to read or write files outside of the shared directory path. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../) supplied via the "unix_convert()" and "check_name()" variables when converting DOS path names to filenames which are valid on the server filesystem.
