Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Caucho Resin, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

1) An input validation error in the HTTP request handling can be exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files via a specially crafted URL path.

Example:
http://[host]:8080/C:%5C/[file]

The vulnerability has been reported in versions 3.0.17 and 3.0.18 for Windows.

2) Input passed to the "contextpath" and "file" parameters in the "viewfile" servlet isn't properly verified before being used to view files. This can be exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files stored within a defined web root.

Example:
http://[host]/resin-doc/viewfile/?contextpath=[directory]&servletpath=&file=[file]

The vulnerability has been reported in versions 3.0.17 and 3.0.18.

Solution:
Update to version 3.0.19.
