*** I'm sorry if this bug is already known, but I have not found it in the
SecurityFocus and other archives.
Author: Auriemma Luigi
VERSION TESTED: Webtrends HTTP Server V3.1c (Webtrends Reporting Server)
RISK: Viewing the source of the cgi scripts
The bug is really simple. If the attacker insert an unicode space (%20)
after the script file, the server think that the file requested is not a
cgi script and for this it shown the source; this is an example:
http://host/remote_login.pl%20
And the result is the source of "remote_login.pl".
I have not contacted Webtrends because I wait for more opinions, and for
result with other versions.
Thanks for your attention.
