Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ContentKeeper Web Appliance versions prior to 125.10
Description Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve arbitrary files from the filesystem because the mimencode binary is exposed via a CGI endpoint. By sending a crafted POST request to the '/cgi-bin/ck/mimencode' endpoint using traversal and output parameters, an attacker can read sensitive files located outside the webroot, such as /etc/passwd.
Recommendations Update ContentKeeper Web Appliance to version 125.10 or later.
