When this endpoint is accessed, it triggers the download of a sensitive debug file located at /usr/local/aam/var/pupdbg.dump. This file may contain internal system information, including protocol states, transaction logs, and system mappings. The vulnerability arises from an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) issue, where the script does not validate or authenticate the requester before allowing access to the debug file.
