Title: Hosting Controller Import Root Directory Command Execution Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
Hosting Controller is an application which consolidates all hosting tasks into one interface. Hosting Controller runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems.
The Import Root Directory (imp_rootdir.asp) script does not force an authentication challenge when accessed. This script allows users to perform actions on files and directories on the host, but under normal circumstances only to those files and directories below the administrative root directory for the Hosting Controller. It is possible, however, to manipulate URL parameters to change the root directory to another directory on the system (such as C:).
This may enable a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying system, eventually leading to a full compromise.
