Delphis Consulting Internet Security Team (DCIST) discovered the following  
vulnerability in WQuinn QuotaAdvisor under WindowsNT.  
  
Severity: Low  
  
It is possible to list all of the files contained on a file system which  
is on a server with QuotaAdvisor running upon it. This requires only a  
normal user account (i.e. non adminstrator/poweruser). This normal user  
account can list the top level administration shares but not the contents.  
However if you run a report upon that share the report will contain a  
complete list of files and their physical locations.
