Uhm, I was actually looking over the problematic piece of code a while ago too, but I thought you could only retrieve JS scripts you where not supposed to this way and I didn't consider it much of a security issue. Good that it has been fixed and that we have some people who like to look at the security aspects in the framework.

Best Regards,

There was an security exploit brought to my attention today. I have fixed this exploit in the trunk and branched versions. Please replace the app/webroot/js/vendors.php with this file.

https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/trunk/cake/1.x.x.x/app/webroot/js/vendors.php?format=txt

This exploit is important to correct since it would allow reading files outside of the vendors/_javascript_ directory when magic_quotes_gpc = Off.

Thank you,
