Summary
The CivetWeb web library does not validate uploaded filepaths when running on an OS other than Windows when using the built-in HTTP form-based file upload mechanism via the mg_handle_form_request API. Web applications that use the file upload form handler and use parts of the user-controlled filename in the output path are susceptible to directory traversal
