Thank You Lee, The application I'm testing, doesn't appear to be a "full blown" web server, but a service that allows a web browser to connect, and dynamicly creates a webpage for the browser to show the state of a process, so it does responds to GET commands. It does have a root directory but not like a normal web server. It also seams to have problems with spaces I tried %20 but that didn't seam to work so I ended up using PROGRA~1 for Program Files and DOCUME~1 for Documents and Settings and so on.

you will only be able to get the PUT command to work on directories that the web server service has write permissions on. What you might be able to try is the following on something like the IE6 browser. http://mycomputer:port#/..//..//..//..//..//..//..//windows/system32/cmd.exe?ipc onfig+/all+>+/windows/inetpub/wwwroot/ipconfig.txt This will attempt to pass a command to the cmd.exe program and execute ipconfig /all, the result of which will be placed into a text file in the windows/inetpub/wwwroot/ directory so you can web browse to it. You can then try other things with cmd.exe, be imaginative. This is a very old vulnerability and may not work properly, but if you can see the contents of win.ini, then there is a good chance. I'm actually a little surprised that the double forward slash is working and that you have not had to replace it with unicode etc. al the best, lee lawson On 10/17/07, jfvanmeter () comcast net <jfvanmeter () comcast net> wrote:Hello everyone, I'm in the middle of a test on a app that the followingcommand works onhttp://mycomputer:port#/..//..//..//..//..//..//..//windows/win.ini and it will prompt me to save the file, if i check my packet capture I see thecontents of the file.So far I've been unable to get a put or post command to work and was hoping toget some ideas from you all on things to try.I've been trying to get nc/telnet and some other tools to help me with the putcomandThanks in advance --John ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Cenzic Need to secure your web apps NOW?
