          This module exploits a directory traversal in Webmin 1.580. The vulnerability
        exists in the edit_html.cgi component and allows an authenticated user with access
        to the File Manager Module to access arbitrary files with root privileges. The
        module has been tested successfully with Webmin 1.580 over Ubuntu 10.04.
