CVE-2009-0843 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The msLoadQuery function in mapserv in MapServer 4.x before 4.10.4 and 5.x before 5.2.2 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files via a full pathname in the queryfile parameter, which triggers different error messages depending on whether this pathname exists.. EPSS estimates a 3.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
