Contenido cfg Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerability |

Checks for cfg parameter remote file include vulnerability in Contenido Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to a remote file inclusion vulnerability. Description : The remote host appears to be running Contenido, an open-source content management system written in PHP. The version of Contenido installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the 'cfg[path][contenido]' and 'cfg[path][classes]' parameters of the 'contenido/classes/class.inuse.php' script before using it in a PHP 'require_once' function. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this flaw to read arbitrary files on the remote host and or run arbitrary code, possibly taken from third-party hosts, subject to the rights of the web server user id.

Network Security Threat Level: High / CVSS Base Score : 7.0 (AV:R/AC:L/Au:NR/C:P/I:P/A:P/B:N) Networks Security ID: 15790 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2006 Tenable Network Security |
