Directory Traversal Vulnerability in HP Web JetAdmin
HP Web JetAdmin is prone to a directory traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to access information outside the server root directory. This vulnerability occurs due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed via the 'setinclude' parameter of the 'setinfo.hts' script. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to upload malicious files and gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable server.
Mitigation:
It is recommended to update to the latest version of HP Web JetAdmin to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, input validation and sanitization should be implemented to prevent directory traversal attacks.
