Bug vulnerability class | Configuration |
Bug description | MLdonkey is a peer-to-peer software to sharing files. An open port tcp/4080 and the returning banner may indicate the existence of the web interface. A successfull connection attempt for the file /wap.wml indicates the presence of wml files for connections over mobile wap. MLdonkey may be illegal in the environment. |
Bug solution | Disable MLdonky if not allowed nor needed. If MLdonkey should run then filter incoming traffic on port tcp/4080 to prevent unwanted access to the web interface. |
