Cutenews · Cutenews · CVE-2005-3592
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
CuteNews versions 1.4.0 and earlier
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to obtain the installation path of the application by triggering an error message. This can be achieved by entering multiple ../ (dot dot slash) in the `archive` parameter of the "index.php" endpoint.
**Recommendations**
For CuteNews versions 1.4.0 and earlier, consider restricting access to the `archive` parameter in the "index.php" endpoint until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the `archive` parameter with multiple ../ (dot dot slash) entries to minimize the risk of path disclosure.
