Kohana Framework contains a flaw that allows an attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the /master/classes/Kohana/Filebrowser.php script not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied via the 'path' parameter. This directory traversal attack would allow a remote attacker to gain access to arbitrary files.
