GWExtranet gwextranet/scp.dll Multiple Parameter Traversal Local File Inclusion

medium Nessus Plugin ID 28293

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a web service extension that is prone to a directory traversal attack.

Description

The remote host is running GWextranet, an add-on for GroupWise for publishing via the web GroupWise calendar and folder information.

The version of GWextranet installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'template' parameter of the 'scp.dll' extension before using it to access files. On a Windows platform, an unauthenticated attacker can leverage this issue to read the content of arbitrary files on the remote host, subject to the privileges of the web server user id.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
