Apache for Windows CGI Source Code Disclosure Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to read source of print-env.pl with Apache for Windows Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server is affected by an information disclosure issue. Description : The version of Apache for Windows installed on the remote host can be tricked into disclosing the source of its CGI scripts because of a configuration issue. Specifically, if the CGI directory is located within the document root, then requests that alter the case of the directory name will bypass the mod_cgi cgi-script handler and be treated as requests for ordinary files. See also : http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/442882/30/0/threaded Solution : Reconfigure Apache so that the scripts directory is located outside of the document root. Network Security Threat Level: Low / CVSS Base Score : 2 (AV:R/AC:H/Au:NR/C:P/A:N/I:N/B:N) Networks Security ID: 19447 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2006 Tenable Network Security |
