Trapeze Service Shell - Admin Service Accessible

high Nessus Plugin ID 42210

Synopsis

The administrative console for the remote web server has not been secured.

Description

The remote web server is a Trapeze Service Shell, the application server component included with various products from Trapeze Software, Inc., such as their traveller information systems for providing public bus and train route information.

The remote Trapeze Service Shell has not been securely configured as it allows uncredentialed access the Admin Service, one of the web services it provides.

A remote attacker can leverage this issue to discover sensitive information about the remote installation of Trapeze or load / unload Trapeze plugins available on the affected system

Note that there are likely to be other services available through the affected application that also have not been secured; services which could expose the application's database or the host's files, although Nessus has not checked for them.

Solution

Apply the proper Security Settings for the Trapeze Service Shell as discussed in the product's Setup Guide.
