HTTP: DB4Web Arbitrary File Disclosure
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against DB4Web application server. A successful attack can lead to unauthorized information disclosure.
Extended Description
DB4Web is an application server that allows read and write access to relational databases and other information sources, via the web. The application is available for Windows, Linux, and various Unix platforms. A directory traversal bug exists in DB4Web. By passing a maliciously crafted query to the application, an attacker can potentially gain access to arbitrary system files. This is due to the application insufficiently validating the user supplied input.
