Description Brayan Arraes (YacK) 2009-07-22 12:51:19 UTC
ALL ZNC versions prior to 0.072 have a path traversal bug in core. Users with a valid login are able to write files to all places to which ZNC has write access. This means they could upload and load new modules which do anything imaginabl

Reproducible: Didn't try
Comment 1 Robert Förster 2009-07-23 18:41:35 UTC
please note that 0.072 had a regression which broke webadmin skins with images
0.072 shouldn't be considered being a stable version but 0.074 should be which got released today
