Title: Plesk Server Administrator PHP Source Disclosure Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Plesk Server Administrator (PSA) is web based software that enables remote administration of web servers. It can be used on Linux and other systems that support PHP.

Due to an input validation error in Plesk Server Administrator, it is possible for a remote attacker to make a specially crafted web request which will display PHP source code.

This is acheivable by connecting to a host (using the IP address rather than the domain name), and submitting a request for a known PHP file along with a valid username.

http://target/~username/filename.php

There is a potential that this issue may result in sensitive information being disclosed to attackers, depending on the contents of the script source code.

Affected Products:

  • Plesk Plesk Server Administrator 1.0.0
