The Yawcam software is vulnerable to a directory traversal vulnerability. Yawcam is a yet another web cam software for Windows operating systems.

By sending a specially-crafted URL containing "dot dot" sequences (../), a remote attacker could read arbitrary files outside of the web root directory with the privileges of the Web service.
