An advisory has been released today by MWR InfoSecurity relating to Elastic Path ecommerce software versions 4.1 and 4.1.1.

Multiple input validation vulnerabilities were identified within the Elastic Path application. As a result, directory traversal was possible allowing unrestricted file system access to the remote server.
