SilverPlatter WebSPIRS Remote File Access Vulnerability

A remote user could gain read access to known files outside of the root directory where SilverPlatter WebSPIRS resides. Requesting a specially crafted URL composed of '../' sequences along with the known filename will disclose the requested file.

Mitigation:

Restrict access to the webspirs.cgi file and ensure that the root directory is not accessible from the web.
