Discussion

Sun Java ASP Server Multiple Directory Traversal Vulnerabilities

Sun Java ASP Server is prone to multiple directory-traversal vulnerabilities because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit these issues using directory-traversal sequences ('../') to view or delete arbitrary files with the privileges of the webserver process. Information obtained may aid in further attacks.

Versions prior to Sun Java ASP Server 4.0.3 are vulnerable.
