Path traversal in ownCloud Classic before 10.15.3 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code on the server. ownCloud has not published the affected code locus or how an attacker-controlled relative path escapes its intended directory. Administrative privileges and high-complexity conditions are required, but successful exploitation grants server-side code execution.
