Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Mono, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error within StaticFileHandler.cs in System.Web when handling requests to files containing trailing spaces or dots. This can be exploited to e.g. view the source code of a requested page via a specially-crafted request with a filename ending in spaces or dots.
The vulnerability reportedly affects only Windows versions of Mono.
