Description

The WebLogic server contains a flaw which lists the contents of directories if certain strings are appended to requests. This could allow sensitive information to be disclosed to attackers.

Classification

Unknown or Incomplete

Technical

Requesting a directory with %00/, %2e/, %2f/ or %5c/ appended to the end causes the WebLogic server to list the directory contents.

Solution

To fix this vulnerability, upgrade to WebLogic Server 6.0 SP 1 or higher. If unable to upgrade, as a workaround, for each deployed application uncheck "Index Directories" in the console under "Configuration/Files".
