Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.103797
Category:Web application abuses
Title:Xibo 'index.php' Multiple Directory Traversal Vulnerabilities
Summary:Xibo is prone to multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities because;it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
Description:Summary:
Xibo is prone to multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities because
it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

Vulnerability Insight:
Directory traversal vulnerabilities occur when user input is
used in the construction of a filename or directory path which is subsequently
used in some system function. If the input is not correctly validated or
directory permissions not correctly set, it may be possible to cause a different
file to be accessed other than that intended. This issue was exploited by adding a
null byte (%00) which resulted in the application ignoring the rest of the supplied
value after the null byte.

Vulnerability Impact:
An attacker can exploit these issues using directory-traversal strings
to retrieve arbitrary files outside of the webserver root directory.
This may aid in further attacks

Affected Software/OS:
Xibo 1.2.2 and 1.4.1 are vulnerable, other versions may also be
affected.

Solution:
Upgrade to Xibo 1.4.2 or later.

CVSS Score:
5.0
