-| Description: |-
PLESK is a powerful web control panel, site builder... You can see more about
it at:
http://www.swsoft.com/en/products/plesk/switch/ .
So, i have found a security hole - path passing and disclosure - of this
product (version
[PLESK 7.5 Reload] and [PLESK 7.6 for M$ Windows]) in the file : filemanager.php
-| What an attacker can do? |-
The attacker can take advantage of this hole to access the parent folder (which
he havent
authorization).
Like this:
https://[stie]:8443/filemanager/filemanager.php?cmd=chdir&file=../
That URL will show him (attacker) the parent folder of his "web root" folder.
Using more
"/../" characters, he'll go to up, up, and up folder so he can gain lot of
important info.
-| How to fix it? |-
Upgrade to the PLESK 8.0 :D.
- End -
P/S: Sorry about my English, its to bad.
