Nabopoll path Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary Checks for path parameter remote file include vulnerability in Nabopoll Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to a remote file include attack.
