Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Sielco Sistemi Winlog Pro SCADA before 2.07.17 and Winlog Lite SCADA before 2.07.17 allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files via port-46824 TCP packets specifying a file-open operation with opcode 0x78 and a .. (dot dot) in a pathname, followed by a file-read operation with opcode (1) 0x96, (2) 0x97, or (3) 0x98.

Root cause
A user-supplied file name is joined with the allowed directory, but the result is never checked to confirm it is still inside that directory.
