SYSTEMS AFFECTED
Simple Server
PROBLEM
'slipy' found following. The Simple Server is a User-Friendly
Web Server that handles HTTP requests. It is Windows based and
extremely convenient to configure and is coded in Java. It
requires the Java Runtime Environment package in order for the
program to be able to execute. Please note this program isn't the
same as AnalogX's "Simple Server". This program was originally
called Free Java Server but has sense been changed to "The Simple
Server".
Adding the string "/../" to an URL allows an attacker to view any
file on the server provided you know where the file is at in the
first place.
Examples:
http://www.VULNERABLE.com/../../../../Scandisk.log
The ../'s depend on where the httpd is installed and what file you
are attempting to view.
SOLUTION
Vendor has been contacted. Waiting for a reply.
