Title: Xcache Path Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
Xcache is a dynamic content caching application which runs in conjunction with Microsoft Internet Information Server. Xcache allows for individual pages or entire folders to have caching disabled if necessary. It intercepts all incoming HTTP requests to the webserver and serves any cached pages without involving the webserver in order to increase performance. If a request is made for a page that is not cached by Xcache, it passes the request on to the IIS server for processing.
When a request is made to the webserver for a page or a page within a folder that is not cached, Xcache returns the full path to the page within the HTTP header information. This path information will be returned regardless of where the page resides on the server.
This information could potentially be used by an attacker to aid with another attack, such as a directory traversal.
Affected Products:
- Xcache Technologies Xcache 2.0.0
- Xcache Technologies Xcache 2.1.0
