Summary
IBM Storage Scale, a storage platform, has a path traversal flaw that lets a remote attacker with low-privilege login read arbitrary files on the system by sending a specially crafted URL request containing "dot dot" sequences. Exploitation requires a network connection and a low-privilege account, and no user interaction is needed.
