ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus FileDownload.jsp path Parameter Traversal Arbitrary File Access

medium Nessus Plugin ID 55449

Synopsis

The remote web server is prone to a directory traversal attack.

Description

The installed version of ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'path' parameter of the 'workorder/FileDownload.jsp' script of directory traversal sequences when 'module' is set to 'Request' before using it to return the contents of a file.

An unauthenticated, remote attacker can leverage this issue to retrieve arbitrary files through its web server using specially crafted requests subject to the privileges under which the web server operates.

Solution

Update to version 7.8 build 7803 or later.
