Mediahouse Statistics Web Server Detect

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Mediahouse Statistics Web Server Detection

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment
We detected the remote web server as a
Mediahouse Statistics web server. This web server suffers from a security
vulnerability that enables attackers to gain sensitive information on the
current logged events on the public web server (the server being monitored
by MediaHouse).
This information includes: who is on (currently surfing users), the user's
actions, customer's IP addresses, referrer URLs, hidden directories, web
server usernames and passwords, and more.

Some versions of the product also suffer from a flaw that permits attackers
to overflow an internal buffer causing it to execute arbitrary code.

Solution: Block the web server's port number on your Firewall, and
upgrade to the latest version if necessary.

Network Security Threat Level: High
