Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in MailSite Express, which can be exploited by malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive information.
The vulnerability is caused due to an access control error allowing anyone (both unauthenticated people and authenticated users) to access any user's attachments. However, successful exploitation requires that the malicious person has knowledge of the path to an attachment, which is randomly generated.
Example:
http://[victim]/express/cache/DC44AEECB46AE0C029E85BBD43089833/411820066/attachment
This knowledge may eg. be gained by sniffing the traffic on a network or through other means.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 5.3.4. However, prior versions may also be affected.
