  * priority:  critical => blocker


Comment:

 Yes, this is fully exploitable and allows one to delete any file on the
 server:
 E.g., on my laptop I created a file tmp/xyz, then pasted in this url, and
 that file was deleted.

 {{{
 
http://localhost:8000/home/admin/13/do_upload_data?urlField=%27%27&nameField=../../../../../../../../tmp/xyz
 }}}

 With a little more work, one could not only delete any file, but I think
 *replace* it by a file of ones choice.  That's a pretty massive exploit.

 So I'm upping this to a blocker and fixing it now.
