Title: Sahana 'mod' Parameter Local File Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Sahana is a web-based disaster-management application.
The application is prone to a local file-disclosure vulnerability because it fails to adequately validate user-supplied input. This issue affects the 'mod' parameter of the 'index.php' script. An attacker can obtain the contents of arbitrary files on the system by providing a NULL character at the end of a filename.
The attacker can obtain potentially sensitive information from local files on computers running the vulnerable application. This may aid in further attacks.
Sahana 0.6.2.2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
Affected Products:
- RedHat Fedora 10
- RedHat Fedora 11
- Sahana Group Sahana 0.6.2.2
