Description
Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Sambar Server 6.1 Beta 2 on Windows, and possibly other versions on Linux, when the administrative IP address restrictions have been modified from the default, allow remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via (1) a "..\" (dot dot backslash) in the file parameter to showini.asp, or (2) an absolute path with drive letter in the log parameter to showlog.asp.
