CVE-2007-3986

Exp

file.cgi in Secure Computing SecurityReporter (aka Network Security Analyzer) 4.6.3 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via a name parameter that specifies the eventcache directory and a non-GIF file, which causes the $dontvalidate variable to be set to true. NOTE: a separate traversal vulnerability could be leveraged to download arbitrary files.
