Secure Computing SnapGear Management Console SG560 3.1.5 Arbitrary File Read / Write

Secure Computing SnapGear Management Console SG560 version 3.1.5 suffers from arbitrary file read and write vulnerabilities. The application allows the currently logged-in user to edit the configuration files in the system using the CGI executable edit_config_files in /cgi-bin/cgix/. The files that are allowed to be modified (read/write/delete) are located in the /etc/config/ directory. An attacker can manipulate the POST request parameters to escape from the restricted environment by using absolute path and start reading, writing and deleting arbitrary files on the system.
