Summary
SpecView is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
Remote attackers can use specially crafted requests with directory- traversal sequences ('../') to retrieve arbitrary files in the context of the application.
Exploiting this issue may allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information that could aid in further attacks.
