The "Help" subsystem did not sufficiently validate the location/origin of its source files. If combined with a web-based upload tool, this could allow a user to execute arbitrary code.
With CiviCRM's standard upload tools, exploiting this vulnerability requires permission "administer CiviCRM". However, other upload tools (such as CMS plugins) could provide other attack vectors.
