Directory Traversal Vulnerability in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator

CVE-2006-3623

Summary

The vulnerability exists in the Framework Service component of the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator agent version 3.5.0.x and earlier. By exploiting this flaw, remote attackers can manipulate the input to create arbitrary files on the server. This is accomplished using directory traversal techniques via the inclusion of '../' sequences in the directory and filename of a PropsResponse request. Such an exploit could jeopardize server integrity, allowing unauthorized access to sensitive files and potentially leading to further exploits.
