How it was found
Summary:
Path Traversal on meetcqpub1.gsa.gov allows attackers to see arbitrary file listings from a directory of their choice.
I wasn't sure if this page was in scope of this program or the TTS program, hopefully this isn't a problem
Steps To Reproduce:
- Navigate to the following URL - https://meetcqpub1.gsa.gov/bin/querybuilder.json.css?path=/home&p.hits=full&p.limit=-1
- The path parameter can be manipulated to show other directories on the system as well, for example /etc.
Impact
An attacker is able to see files and directories present on the system, breaking the confidentiality section of the CIA Triad.
