TITLE

Ipswitch WS_FTP Server Manager Etc. WSFTPSVR/ Subordinate custom ASP Vulnerability to read file contents

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2008-005195

DESCRIPTION

Ipswitch WS_FTP Server Manager 6.1.0.0 and earlier, and possibly other Ipswitch products, might allow remote attackers to read the contents of custom ASP files in WSFTPSVR/ via a request with an appended dot character. WS_FTP Server Manager is prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability and an information-disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit these issues to gain unauthorized access to the affected application and gain access to potentially sensitive information. These issues affect WS_FTP Server Manager 6.1.0.0; prior versions may also be affected. Ipswitch WS_FTP Server is a highly secure and easy-to-manage file transfer server
