1) Introduction
===============
NeroNET is a web server which allows Nero users to use a CD/DVD burner
remotely.

2) Bug
======
The program is affected by a classical directory traversal bug which
can be exploited by anyone since the directories used as base for the
attack (www and status) are publics and do NOT require authorization.
Both slash and backslash and the relative HTTP encoded chars are
allowed.
The limitation of this bug is that only some file extensions are
allowed:
nri, nrg, zip, dvi, rtf, ppt, pdf, mpe, mpeg, mpg, mov, qt, vob, avi,
wav, mp3, bmp, tiff, tif, jpe, jpeg, jpg, gif, log, txt, sdp, css,
js, html, htm
The check made by NeroNET is only on the beginning of the extension so
JSP or JSWHATYOUWANT are allowed extensions since JS is in the list.
