Emulive Server4 Authentication Bypass

high Nessus Plugin ID 14805

Synopsis

A web application running on the remote host has an authentication bypass vulnerability.

Description

The remote host is running EmuLive Server4, a web and media streaming server.

There is a flaw in the administrative interface that allows a remote attacker to bypass the authentication procedure by requesting the page '/public/admin/index.htm' directly.

An attacker may exploit this flaw to gain administrative access over the remote service.

Emulive has also been reported to have a denial of service condition when handling carriage returns, though Nessus has not checked for this issue.

Solution

Upgrade to the latest version of this software.
