      SimpleCam Directory Traversal
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    " <http://www.deadpirate.com/> SimpleCam is an easy to use webcam software
    product. It is designed for people who want to stream live video from
    their computers without paying a fortune or signing up for a service."

    The web server supplied with SimpleCam is vulnerable to a directory
    traversal vulnerability, allowing unauthorized access to systems
    information outside of web folder.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable Systems:
     * SimpleCam version 1.2 and prior

    Immune Systems:
     * SimpleCam version 1.3

    The program has a built-in web server that is not able to manage patterns
    like "..\" into the HTTP request. Therefore, an attacker can go out of the
    document root assigned to the web server and see/download all the files
    available on the remote machine.

    To test the vulnerability, try accessing the following URL:
    http://[host]/..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\windows\system.ini
