SAP security note 1705800, "Directory Traversal in Browse Deployment". Below are the symptom, SAP recommended solution and the affected software components.
Description
Symptom
The Portal contains a vulnerability that allows an attacker to perform directory traversal, potentially writing arbitrary files to the remote server. This could lead to data corruption or alteration of system behavior.
An attacker can exploit the Portal's failure to properly validate file paths, directing the program to access arbitrary files on the system and disclosing their contents.
Solution

If you are using SAP Enterprise Portal 7.10 or above, the fix is already included in Note 1630293.
