Title: Multiple Web Wiz Products Remote Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Web Wiz Forums is a web-based bulletin-board application. Web Wiz NewsPad is a news-bulletin and newsletter application. Web Wiz Rich Text Editor (RTE) is a WYSIWYG HTML text editor. All three applications are implemented in ASP.
Web Wiz Forums, NewsPad, and Rich Text Editor are prone to a remote information-disclosure vulnerability because they fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input. Specifically, input to the 'sub' parameter of the 'RTE_file_browser.asp' script isn't properly sanitized of directory-traversal strings ('../'). In Web Wiz Forums, this issue also affects the 'file_browser.asp' script.
An attacker can exploit this issue to retrieve arbitrary files in the context of the webserver process. Information obtained may aid in further attacks; other attacks are also possible.
This issue affects Forums 9.07, NewsPad 1.02, and Rich Text Editor 4.0; other versions may also be vulnerable.
Affected Products:
- Web Wiz Forums 9.07
- Web Wiz NewPad 1.02
- Web Wiz Rich Text Editor 4.0
