The remote host is running a version of Computalynx’s CProxy Server that suffers from the following vulnerabilities:

  • Arbitrary Local File Access CProxy allows an attacker to retrieve arbitrary local files by issuing an HTTP request with directory traversal sequences relative to a subdirectory under CProxy’s cache/intracache directory. This may lead to the disclosure of sensitive information.

  • Denial of Service Vulnerability An attacker may crash the proxy while requesting arbitrary local files, either by requesting an executable file or by using a GET (as opposed to HEAD or POST) request.
