Bugtraq: Re: Eserv 2.50 Web interface Server Directory Traversal Vulnerability

[andrey () CHEREZOV KOENIG SU (Andrey Cherezov)]

Hello!
It was surprise for me - Windows allow to open the file
with name "wwwroot\--\..\..\conf\Eserv.ini"
when folder "--" not exists. Seems this is Windows bug, not my,
but I forced to fix Eserv. (Already fixed in the Eserv build 2841)
Thank you again!
