Dino's WebServer, File Transversal Vulnerability

Date: January 8, 2002
Author: CaMaLeOn
Affected: Dino's WebServer
Tested by: CaMaLeOn, DraZiw, WiZaRd
Versions Test: 1.x
Vendor Status: Notified
Plattaforms: win9x, win2000, WinNT

Dino's Webserver is a small and very simple to use 
web server that is
intended to allow you to setup a quick and basic web 
server to serve 
a home page from your local computer. It includes a 
log function as well
as a simple web hit counter with different design 
styles to choose 
from. All it requires is the IP adress of your machine 
(which it 
automatically detects), the web directory and port to 
use. The program 
is intended for casual home usage only. 


A vulnerability has been discovered in Dino's 
WebServer which may allow
a remote attacker to view the contents of arbitrary 
files.

Dino's WebServer does not adequately filter '../' 
sequences from web 
requests: eg:
win9x= 
www.hostvulnerable.com/../windows/admin.pwl
winnt= 
www.hostvulnerable.com/../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?
/c+dir+c:\ (no tasted)
