Is path traversal a valid vulnerability valid for a windows desktop application?

I am having a small .NET console application that the user launches on its local machine, passing a path argument to which the application is writing a file.

Can this be considered a path traversal vulnerability?

I was thinking this is not a real vulnerability that can be exploited since the application is launched by the user supplying a path. Won't this be having the user's permissions?
