Title: SoftArtisans FileUp Viewsrc.ASP Directory Traversal Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
FileUp is a web-based file upload/download component implemented in ASP.
The application is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. The issue occurs when specially crafted HTTP GET requests to the 'path' parameter of 'viewsrc.asp' contain directory-traversal strings using Unicode.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to retrieve arbitrary files from the vulnerable system in the context of the application. Information obtained may aid in further attacks.
FileUp 5.0.14 is vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
Note that the 'viewsrc.asp' script is a sample script available with the application and may not be installed by default.
Affected Products:
- SoftArtisans FileUp 5.0.14
