EServ Password Protected File Access Vulnerability
EServ is a combination Mail, News, Web, FTP and Proxy Server for Microsoft Windows 9x/NT/2000 systems. It is possible to construct a web request which is capable of accessing the contents of password protected files/folders on the webserver, such as the admin folder, which contains the administrative interface. It should be noted that this vulnerability may only be exploited to access password-protected files in sub-folders of wwwroot. The following example will give the attacker access to the administrative interface: http://host/./admin/default.htm
Mitigation:
Ensure that all password-protected files are stored outside of the wwwroot folder.
