Parallels System Automation (PSA) Local File Inclusion
An attacker can exploit a local file inclusion vulnerability in Parallels System Automation (PSA) to gain access to sensitive files on the server. By manipulating the 'help_id' parameter in the 'servlet/Help' URL, an attacker can include arbitrary files from the web server. This can be exploited to include the '/etc/passwd' file, which contains the usernames and passwords of all users on the system.
Mitigation:
The best way to mitigate this vulnerability is to ensure that user input is properly sanitized and validated. Additionally, access to the vulnerable URL should be restricted to trusted users.
