Title: Zope addItems Script Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Zope is an open source web application server, maintained by the Zope Project. Zope is available for Linux, Unix, and Microsoft Windows based systems.
A vulnerability has been discovered in Zope which may result in the disclosure of sensitive information to a remote attacker. The problem occurs when a value greater then 11 is passed as the records URI parameter to the addItems script. When this occurs, an exception will be triggered causing the server to return an error page containing sensitive system information.
Information disclosed may include session identification, the script installation paths, the application installation path, etc.
Access to this information could potentially aid an attacker in launching further attacks against the system.
Affected Products:
- Gentoo Linux 1.2.0
- Gentoo Linux 1.4.0 _rc1
- Zope Zope 2.5.1
- Zope Zope 2.6.1
