Description

By requesting the 'remediate.cgi' script omitting certain parameters, the embedded PCS web server returns the physical path of the webroot ('/home/webserver/htdocs/') within an "Execute failed" error message Knowing the path does not provide any useful information and does not expose any further security risk to the device.

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
