Title: Alchemy Eye Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Alchemy Eye is a network monitor tool for Windows based environments. Alchemy Eye is maintained by Alchemy Labs.

A directory traversal issue exists in Alchemy Eye which could allow for remote command execution.

It is possible for remote clients to request files outside of the webroot using "../" sequences. The path must be relative to the '/cgi-bin/' directory in the webroot. It is possible to view and execute files on the filesystem.

Successful exploitation can lead to attackers gaining access to the host.

The vendor attempted to fix this vulnerability, however Alchemy Eye remains vulnerable. On patched systems, attackers can traverse out of the root directory by placing MS-DOS device names before the first "../".

Example:

http://host/cgi-bin/PRN/../../../
