Security Bypass, Exposure of sensitive information

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in dirLIST, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and
to bypass certain security restrictions.

1) Input passed to the "folder" parameter in index.php is not
properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to get a
directory listing of the directory above the dirLIST installation.

2) A vulnerability is caused due to improper verification in
index.php. This can be exploited to enter directories that the
product is configured to hide, by passing values to the "folder"
parameter.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.1. Prior versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 0.1.1.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Discovered by the vendor.
