Description:
FIST has reported a vulnerability in the DansGuardian Webmin Module, allowing malicious people to conduct directory traversal attacks.

The problem is that the "edit.cgi" script allows users to supply paths to arbitrary files in the "file" parameter. This can be exploited to view and edit any file, which Webmin has got access to.

The vulnerability affects versions prior to 0.5.9.
