Owl's Workshop is reported prone to multiple remote file-disclosure vulnerabilities because the application fails to validate user-supplied input passed via a URI parameter.

Upon successful exploitation of these issues, an attacker may be able to gain access to sensitive system files, potentially facilitating further attacks.
