Bug Description
Binary package hint: torrentflux
Just tried to start a torrentfile with 3 dot's in the name:
It results in the following error:
SOMENAME_
So it filters 2 dots out, some magical way.
After doing this:
root:/var/
it worked as expected.

This is due to the security features installed recently that prevents users from navigating your server outside of the torrentflux directory. All instances of '..' are removed to prevent unplanned returns to higher directories.
