### Description
I work for the "R-X Team". During penetration testing, I came across Serv-U. I started looking for known vulnerabilities, and I was interested in CVE-2020-27994. But it was closed by an update in version 15.2.2, and I was working with Serv-U version 15.3.0. "I decided to dig deeper and modify the payload in various ways, as well as modify the HTTP request itself, after much agony I managed to reproduce the vulnerability of directory traversal" :)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform directory traversal attacks by sending a specially crafted HTTP request and reading arbitrary files in the system.
Reading files is only possible on the C:
\ drive, an attacker can get information on the file server only by knowing the path to the files. There are 3 known options for which files and how an attacker can read:
- Default Windows files. Example: "C:\Windows\win.ini ";
- Brute force file detection;
- Determination of file paths in default Windows files or used software on the server.
