Overview

BlogEngine.net 2.8.0.0 and earlier versions contain an information disclosure vulnerability which could allow an attacker to gain access to credentials.

Description

CWE-200: Information Exposure

BlogEngine.net 2.8.0.0 and earlier contain an information disclosure vulnerability which could allow an attacker to gain access to credential information. BlogEngine.net allows unauthenticated users to view system configuration files (sioc.axd) which contain username and hashed passwords of the BlogEngine.net site.

Solution

We are currently unaware of a practical solution to this problem.
