Apache OpenMeetings 3.0.7 Arbitary File Read

Apache OpenMeetings 3.0.7 Arbitary File Read
Posted Mar 25, 2016
Authored by Andreas Lindh

When attempting to upload a file via the API using the importFileByInternalUserId or importFile methods in the FileService, it is possible to read arbitrary files from the system. This is due to that Java's URL class is used without checking what protocol handler is specified in the API call. Apache OpenMeetings versions 1.9.x through 3.0.7 are affected.
