Baltimore Technologies WEBsweeper 4.02, when used to manage URL blacklists, allows remote attackers to bypass blacklist restrictions and connect to unauthorized web servers by modifying the requested URL, including (1) a // (double slash), (2) a /SUBDIR/.. where the desired file is in the parentdir, (3) a /./, or (4) URL-encoded characters.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy URL-filtering bypass in Baltimore Technologies WEBsweeper 4.02. If the product is used to enforce URL blacklists, a remote user may be able to reach sites that policy intended to block by changing URL formatting. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running Baltimore Technologies WEBsweeper 4.02 for URL blacklist enforcement. The source bundle does not identify other affected versions or products. Treat this as a legacy control-risk issue, not an emergency absent known active exploitation. Prioritize confirmation if WEBsweeper 4.02 still protects outbound web access, because a bypass weakens compliance and acceptable-use controls. Mitigation focus: Check vendor technote and support guidance for WEBsweeper 4.02.; Retire or replace unsupported WEBsweeper deployments if no supported fix exists.; Move URL filtering enforcement to a supported security gateway..
