PatchLink Update Server nwupload.asp Directory Traversal Vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary Tries to write a file using PatchLink Update Server Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains an ASP script that is affected by a directory traversal flaw. Description : The remote host is running PatchLink Update Server, a patch and vulnerability management solution. The version of PatchLink Update Server installed on the remote fails to sanitize input to the '/dagent/nwupload.asp' script of directory traversal sequences and does not require authentication before removing directories and writing to files as the user 'PLUS ANONYMOUS'. An unauthenticated attacker can leverage this flaw to remove directories required by the application and write arbitrary content to files on the affected host. Note that Novell ZENworks Patch Management is based on PatchLink Update Server and is affected as well.
