This flaw resides within the \u003ccode\u003eread_file\u003c/code\u003e, \u003ccode\u003ewrite_file\u003c/code\u003e, \u003ccode\u003elist_files\u003c/code\u003e, and \u003ccode\u003efile_inf\u003c/code\u003e functions of the \u003ccode\u003esrc/server.py\u003c/code\u003e file. Successful exploitation allows a remote attacker to bypass directory restrictions and access or modify files outside the intended \u003ccode\u003eWORKSPACE_PATH\u003c/code\u003e. The vulnerability\u0026rsquo;s ease of exploitation is increased by the public availability of exploit code. Although the project was notified through an issue report, no response or patch has been released to date.
