netOffice Dwins demoSession Parameter Authentication Bypass
high Nessus Plugin ID 31342
Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by an authentication bypass vulnerability.Description
The remote host is running netOffice Dwins, an open source project management application written in PHP.The version of netOffice Dwins installed on the remote host allows an attacker to bypass authentication and access parts of the affected application to which access would not ordinarily be allowed. Such access could be gained by setting the 'demoSession' request parameter to '1'. One possible means of attack that this reportedly allows is the uploading of arbitrary PHP files to be executed on the remote host, subject to the privileges under which the web server operates.
Solution
Upgrade to netOffice Dwins 1.3.1 or later.See Also
