The remote host is running Dwarf HTTP Server, a full-featured, Java-based web server.According to its banner, the version of Dwarf HTTP Server on the remote host reportedly fails to properly validate filename extensions in URLs. A remote attacker may be able to leverage this issue to disclose the source of scripts hosted by the affected application using specially crafted requests with dot, space, slash, and NULL characters.
In addition, the web server also reportedly fails to sanitize requests before returning error pages, which can be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
