Status: ModifiedHigh (7.5)—

There is a path traversal vulnerability in Esri ArcGIS Server versions 10.9.1 and below. Successful exploitation may allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker traverse the file system to access files outside of the intended directory on ArcGIS Server. This could lead to the disclosure of sensitive site configuration information (not user datasets).
