One of the main weaknesses of OSClass is the vulnerability identified as CVE-2014-6308. This vulnerability is related to directory traversal and allows remote attackers to read any files within the index.php folder by using the ".." parameter in the file parameter in the oc-admin/render action. Hackers can exploit this vulnerability to access important and sensitive data, such as personal information or system files, which could have a devastating impact on the website's security.

If this vulnerability is exploited, the attacker can access and read arbitrary files leading to unauthorized access to the server, system files or confidential information of users or the organization.
