As it currently stands, NNCP is vulnerable to path traversal attacks with
freq and file functions: Despite the requirement for both to supply full path
in configuration, both types of packets will accept and act upon paths containing
"..". Most obviously, this allows one to request any file NNCP has access to,
like its own configuration file with the private keys in it.
Likewise, a sent file can break out of the incoming directory in the same manner
and be written anywhere on the system that the user can write to.
This patch is my take on dealing with this by by limiting path traversal to
below the configured full path. It does nothing about, e.g., symlinks,
and I'm not sure anything should be done about those.
