Bug vulnerability class | Directory Traversal |
Bug description | The remote host is using KorWeblog, a web based log application written in PHP. A vulnerability exists in the remote version of this product which may allow a remote attacker to disclose directory listings. Information disclosures could help the attacker in further attacks. |
Bug solution | The software should be deactivated or de-installed if not necessary. Upgrade to the latest version of KorWeblog, at least to 1.6.2. To make it harder to find the server the daemon could be configured to listen at another port (e.g. 8081). Try to prevent unwanted connection attempts by filtering traffic with firewalling. |
