Title: SquirrelMail Options.PHP Web Root Path Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
SquirrelMail is a feature rich webmail program implemented in the PHP4 language. It is available for Linux and Unix based operating systems.
A problem with SquirrelMail could make it possible for an attacker to gain sensitive information.
Under some conditions, SquirrelMail may reveal sensitive configuration information. When a malformed 'optpage' file argument is given to the 'options.php' script,an error page will be generated. The error page returned contains absolute pathname of the options.php script.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to obtain potentially sensitive information about a vulnerable system. Information obtained in this manner may be used by an attacker to launch further, potentially destructive, attacks against a vulnerable system.
This vulnerability was reported for SquirrelMail 1.2.7.
