Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability explicitly occurs in Load.ashx's handling of the 'file' parameter. ASP.NET HTTP handlers implement IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest to handle requests. The lack of path normalization/sanitization in this method when processing user-supplied 'file' parameters enables directory traversal. This matches the CWE-22 pattern and exploit examples showing '../' in the parameter.
