CVE Catalog

CVE-2005-2885

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The Downloads page in MAXdev MD-Pro 1.0.73, and possibly earlier versions, uses an incomplete blacklist to check for dangerous file extensions, which could allow remote attackers to bypass file extension checks and execute arbitrary commands by uploading a file with a different extension, as demonstrated using .inc files.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can upload a malicious file to the server, leading to remote code execution and full system compromise.

Recommendation

Update MAXdev MD-Pro to the latest available version that includes fixed file extension validation. If an update is not possible, implement additional server-side file type control mechanisms.
