PHP-Fusion extract() Variable Overwriting Vulnerabilities |
||
|
Tries to overwrite $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR] with PHP-Fusion Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP script that is affected by a variable overwriting flaw. Description : The version of PHP-Fusion on the remote host supports registering variables from user-supplied input in the event that PHP's 'register_globals' setting is disabled, which is the default in current versions of PHP. Unfortunately, the way in which this has been implemented in the version on the remote host does not restrict the variables that can be registered. Thus, an unauthenticated remote attacker can leverage this flaw to launch various attacks against the affected application.
