This video explains a very rare vulnerability class called client-side path traversal. It has very little commonalities with the classical path traversal attack. Client-side path traversal allows the attacker to perform a CSRF-like attack on endpoints that should not be vulnerable to CSRFs. It was discovered and reported by Johan Carlsson. He received a bounty of $6,580 for it.
