Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xerver, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions or conduct cross-site scripting and HTTP response splitting attacks.
1) An error exists in the HTTP server when handling HTTP requests. This can be exploited to disclose the content of files having a restricted extension by appending "::$DATA" to the requested file name.
2) Input passed via the "currentPath" parameter (when "action" is set to "chooseDirectory") to the administrative interface running on port 32123 is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
3) Input appended after the URL is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTTP headers, which will be included in a response sent to the user.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 4.32 for Windows. Other versions may also be affected.
