A security issue has been discovered by Daniel de Rauglaudre, upstream author of geneweb, a genealogical software with web interface. It runs as a daemon on port 2317 by default. Paths are not properly sanitized, so a carefully crafted URL lead geneweb to read and display arbitrary files of the system it runs on.
