DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Sentinel Log Manager, which can
be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.

The vulnerability is caused due to insufficient access checks when
granting access to protected files owned by the user, who owns the
install (usually "novell"). This can be exploited by an
unauthenticated person with HTTP access to delete arbitrary files
containing an underscore in the name.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.0.2 (1.1 Hot Fix 2).
