Category:	Web Servers
Title:	'/.//WEB-INF/' Information Disclosure Vulnerability (HTTP)
Summary:	Various application or web servers / products are prone to an; information disclosure vulnerability.
Description:	Summary: Various application or web servers / products are prone to an information disclosure vulnerability. Vulnerability Insight: The servlet specification prohibits servlet containers from serving resources in the '/WEB-INF' and '/META-INF' directories of a web application archive directly to clients. This means that URLs like: http://example.com/WEB-INF/web.xml will return an error message, rather than the contents of the deployment descriptor. However, some application or web servers / products are prone to a vulnerability that exposes this information if the client requests a URL like this instead: http://example.com/.//WEB-INF/web.xml http://example.com/.//web-inf/web.xml (note the './/' before 'WEB-INF'). Vulnerability Impact: Based on the information provided in this file an attacker might be able to gather additional info and/or sensitive data about the application / the application / web server. Affected Software/OS: The following products are known to be affected: - Payara Platform Enterprise / Community Other products might be affected as well. Solution: The following vendor fixes are known: - Update to Payara Platform Enterprise 5.31.0, Payara Platform Community 5.2021.7 or later. For other products please contact the vendor for more information on possible fixes. CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
