| Detailed Description |
The BadBlue server, according to its banner, has an unauthorized HTS access vulnerability. BadBlue is a P2P file sharing Web server distributed by Working Resources for Microsoft Windows operating systems. BadBlue versions 2.2 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to bypass BadBlue security checks when '.hts' files are requested. BadBlue restricts access to non-HTML files by replacing the first two letters in the file extension of a requested resource with 'ht'. If the third character of a file extension is 's', then it is possible to trick BadBlue into serving a non-HTML file with an extension of '.hts'. This will bypass other security checks which would normally prevent BadBlue from serving these files to remote users.
* Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote HTTP server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
