Interchange < 5.4.4 / 5.6.2 / 5.7.2 Search Request Information Disclosure

medium Nessus Plugin ID 41056

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server uses an application server that may be prone to an information disclosure vulnerability.

Description

The remote host appears to be running Interchange, an open source application server that handles state management, authentication, session maintenance, click trails, filtering, URL encodings, and security policy.

According to the banner in its administrative login page, the installed version of Interchange is earlier than 5.4.4 / 5.6.2 / 5.7.2. Such versions are potentially affected by an information disclosure vulnerability. Any database table configured within Interchange can be queried remotely by an unauthenticated user because the application fails to limit access from its search functions.

Solution

Upgrade to Interchange 5.4.4 / 5.6.2 / 5.7.2 or later.
