- Description:
####################
Web Wiz NewsPad is an advanced but easy to use Email Newsletter and
Website News Bulletin software.

####################
- Vulnerability:
####################
Input passed to the FolderName parameter in "RTE_file_browser.asp" is
not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to
list directories, list txt and list zip files through directory
traversal attacks.
Also, "RTE_file_browser.asp" does not check user's session and an
unauthenticated attacker can perform this attack.

-POC:
http://[WebWiz
NewsPad]/RTE_file_browser.asp?look=⊂=.....\.....\.....\

####################

strSubFolderName = Replace(strSubFolderName, "../", "", 1, -1, 1)
strSubFolderName = Replace(strSubFolderName, "..", "", 1, -1, 1)
strSubFolderName = Replace(strSubFolderName, "./", "", 1, -1, 1)
