The Open ISES Project 3.30A contains a path traversal vulnerability in the ajax/download.php endpoint that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files by manipulating the filename parameter. Attackers can supply directory traversal sequences ../ in the filename parameter to access files outside the intended directory, including configuration files and system files.
