PHP iCalendar Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to upload PHP code using PHP iCalendar Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by an arbitrary file upload vulnerability. Description : The remote host appears to be running PHP iCalendar, a web-based iCal file viewer / parser written in PHP. The installed version of PHP iCalendar supports iCal publishing yet does not properly restrict the types of files uploaded and places them in a web-accessible directory. An unauthenticated attacker can leverage this issue to upload files with arbitrary PHP code and then run that code subject to the rights of the web server user id. Note that successful exploitation of this issue requires that '$phpicalendar_publishing' be enabled in 'config.inc.php', which is not the default. See also : http://www.nessus.org/u?1e9e4806 Solution : Edit the application's 'config.inc.php' file and set '$phpicalendar_publishing' to 0. 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: 17129 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2006 Tenable Network Security |
