Title: 2Wire HomePortal Series Directory Traversal Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

2Wire HomePortal Series is a set of gateway servers designed for home users. HomePortal Series supports Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS operating systems.

A vulnerability has been alleged to exist in the software that may allow a remote attacker to access information outside the server root directory. The problem exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data through the 'return' parameter in the 'wralogin' authentication form that is accessed through the HTTPS (SSL) interface. The issue may allow a remote attacker to traverse outside the server root directory by using '../' character sequences.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information that may be used to launch further attacks against a vulnerable system.

All versions of 2Wire HomePortal Series have been reported to be vulnerable to this issue.
