The ShellExample.cgi script in 4D WebSTAR 5.3.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to list arbitrary directories via a URL with the desired path and a "*" (asterisk) character.

The remote server is running 4D WebStar Web Server.  The remote server is vulnerable to two issues:  an attacker may be able to obtain the listing of a directory by appending a star (*) to the directory name and an attacker may obtain the file php.ini by directly requesting /cgi-bin/php.ini

The remote server is running a version  of 4D  WebStar Web Server earlier than 5.3.3. Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple issues :

  - An attacker may be able to obtain the listing of a     directory by appending a star (*) to the directory name.

  - An attacker may obtain the file php.ini by requesting     /cgi-bin/php.ini.

It is possible that the remote web server contains one or more dangerous CGI scripts. 

Note that this plugin does not actually test for the underlying flaws but instead only searches for scripts with the same name as those with known vulnerabilities.
