Title: GetAccess Remote Arbitrary Java Code Execution Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

GetAccess allows administration of individual user access rights and customer profiles on high-volume 'portal' websites.

A flaw exists in GetAccess' execution of java class files. When reading in filenames, input is not validated and directory traversals can be used to execute java class files anywhere on the filesystem.

If a class that is dangerous exists anywhere on the system, an attacker may be able to execute it by requesting it's relative path using directory traversal sequences.

A user may be able to have a custom class executed if they can place it on the filesystem (ie, using another vulnerability or anonymous ftp).

The code will execute with the privileges of the webserver.

Affected Products:

  • Entrust GetAccess 1.0.0
