Christey> Abstraction and definition issue: CD:SF-LOC suggests combining issues of the same type. Some people refer to "directory traversal" and just mean .. problems; but there are other issues (specifying an absolute pathname, using C: drive letters, doing encodings) that, to my way of thinking, are "different." Perhaps this should be split. My brain hurts too much right now. There are a couple problems with the references and descriptions of CVE-1999-1050 and CVE-1999-1051. I'm interpreting the underlying nature of the problem(s) a little differently than others are. Some of it may be due to differing definitions or thoughts about what "directory traversal vulnerabilities" are. |
