info:
  name: SolarView Compact < 6.00 - Directory Traversal
  author: DhiyaneshDk
  severity: high
  description: |
    SolarView Compact before version 6.00 is vulnerable to directory traversal via the file parameter in downloader.php. An unauthenticated attacker can read arbitrary files from the system by using path traversal sequences with a null byte bypass to access sensitive files such as /etc/passwd.
  impact: |
    An attacker can read sensitive system files including /etc/passwd which may contain password hashes on embedded devices, potentially leading to full system compromise.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade SolarView Compact to version 6.00 or later.
