Vendor URL: http://www.wquinn.com/



Delphis Consulting Internet Security Team (DCIST) discovered the following

vulnerability in WQuinn QuotaAdvisor under WindowsNT.



Severity: Low



It is possible to list all of the files contained on a file system which

is on a server with QuotaAdvisor running upon it. This requires only a

normal user account (i.e. non adminstrator/poweruser). This normal user

account can list the top level administration shares but not the contents.

However if you run a report upon that share the report will contain a

complete list of files and their physical locations.
