CVE-2005-4703: Infoleak
First published: Sat Dec 31 2005(Updated: )
Apache Tomcat 4.0.3, when running on Windows, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a request for a file that contains an MS-DOS device name such as lpt9, which leaks the pathname in an error message, as demonstrated by `lpt9.xtp` using Nikto.
