Message | WEB-PHP /_admin access |
Summary | This event is generated when an attempt is made to access the /_admin directory. |
Impact | Unauthorized file upload or information gathering. This can allow an attacker to upload unauthorized files to the web server or information disclosure. |
Detailed Information | A vulnerability exists in the jbrowser web-based image gallery software that allows unchecked access to the _admin directory, possibly permitting an attacker to execute scripts found in this directory. Execution of admin scripts upload.php3 and upload_ftp.php3 may allow the attacker to upload malicious files to the server or replace existing files. Execution of the list_all.php script may allow an attacker to display files in directories, including those not in the web server root directory. |
Affected Systems | Not reported. |
Attack Scenarios | An attacker can craft a URL to execute the upload.php3, upload_ftp.php3, and list_all.php scripts to upload files or examine files on the vulnerable server. |
Ease of Attack | Simple. |
Corrective Action | Restrict access to the '_admin' directory to authorized users only. |
