Description
Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in Apache Software Foundation Apache MINA.
In SFTP servers implemented using Apache MINA SSHD that use a RootedFileSystem, logged users may be able to discover "exists/does not exist" information about items outside the rooted tree via paths including parent navigation ("..") beyond the root, or involving symlinks.
This issue affects Apache MINA: from 1.0 before 2.10. Users are recommended to upgrade to 2.10
