Detects directory traversal file access and DoS vulnerability in CProxy Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote HTTP proxy server is affected by multiple issues. Description : The remote host is running a version of Computalynx's CProxy Server that suffers from the following vulnerabilities: - Arbitrary Local File Access CProxy permits a possible hacker to retrieve arbitrary local files by issuing an HTTP request with directory traversal sequences relative to a subdirectory under CProxy's cache/intracache directory. This may lead to the disclosure of sensitive information. - Denial of Service Vulnerability A possible hacker may crash the proxy while requesting arbitrary local files, either by requesting an executable file or by using a GET (as opposed to HEAD or POST) request.
