Directory-Traversal Attack in PowerISO
An attacker can carry out attacks using directory-traversal strings. These issues occur when the application processes malicious archives. A successful attack can allow the attacker to place potentially malicious files and to overwrite files on a computer in the context of the user running the affected application. A successful exploit may aid in further attacks.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the application is not processing malicious archives.
