Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties in RDT400 in SICK APU allows an unprivileged remote attacker to download various files from the server via HTTP requests.

Weakness

The product makes files or directories accessible to unauthorized actors, even though they should not be.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Apu0200_firmware Sick * 4.0.0.6 (excluding)

Extended Description

Web servers, FTP servers, and similar servers may store a set of files underneath a “root” directory that is accessible to the server’s users. Applications may store sensitive files underneath this root without also using access control to limit which users may request those files, if any. Alternately, an application might package multiple files or directories into an archive file (e.g., ZIP or tar), but the application might not exclude sensitive files that are underneath those directories. In cloud technologies and containers, this weakness might present itself in the form of misconfigured storage accounts that can be read or written by a public or anonymous user.
