Two vulnerabilities have been identified in TWiki, which could be exploited by remote attackers to bypass security restrictions or cause a denial of service.
The first issue is due to an error in the rdiff and preview scripts, which could be exploited by attackers to gain access to restricted areas and content.
The second vulnerability is due to an infinite recursion when handling specially crafted "INCLUDE" statements, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service.
