FireEye appliance unauthorized remote root file system access
A vulnerability in FireEye appliance allows an attacker to gain unauthorized remote root file system access. This can be done by sending a malicious request to the web server, which runs as root. The malicious request contains the path to the etc/passwd file, which can be accessed and downloaded by the attacker.
Mitigation:
FireEye should implement an external security researcher reporting process and ensure that web servers are not running as root.
