Description:   Opened: 2009-02-23 22:07 0000 
Quoting from http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/8097:
MLdonkey (up to 2.9.7) has  a  vulnerability  that allows remote user to access
any
file   with   rights   of  running  Mldonkey  daemon  by  supplying  a
special-crafted  request  (ok,  there's  not much special about double
slash) to an Mldonkey http GUI (tcp/4080 usually).

Reference:
https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?25667

Thus, the exploit would be as simple as accessing any file on a remote
host with your browser and double slash:

http://mlhost:4080//etc/passwd

How exactly does 2.9.7 fix this bug? Also, it is not properly tracked in the
Security product.

The security bug is present in MLDonkey >= 2.8.4 to <= 2.9.7 and was fixed
today in MLDonkey 3.0.0
