Directory traversal vulnerability in the Import/Export System Backups functionality in Apache OpenMeetings before 3.1.1 allows remote authenticated administrators to write to arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a ZIP archive entry.
CVE-2016-0784
Score elevated to 7.7 because EPSS predicts 56% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 1.0% of all CVEs). NVD baseline CVSS 6.5 retained for reference. Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 56%
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
