Websense TRITON 7.8 Source Code Disclosure

medium Nessus Plugin ID 83741

Synopsis

The application on the remote web server is affected by a source code disclosure vulnerability.

Description

The version of Websense TRITON running on the remote web server contains a flaw in handling a JSP script request having an appended double quote character. This causes the source code of the script to be returned instead of it being executed. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this flaw to view the source code of the application, allowing further attacks to be carried out.

Solution

Update to version 7.8.4 Hotfix 02 or 8.0.0.
