PHProjekt path_pre Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to read /etc/passwd using PHProjekt Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP script that is susceptible to remote file include attacks. Description : The remote host is running PHProjekt, an open-source groupware suite written in PHP. The version of PHProjekt installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'path_pre' parameter of the 'lib/authform.inc.php' script before using it in a PHP 'include_once()' function. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to view arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from third-party hosts. See also : http://www.nessus.org/u?5d0f3320 Solution : Upgrade to PHProject version 4.2.3 or later. Network Security Threat Level: Medium / CVSS Base Score : 6 (AV:R/AC:H/Au:NR/C:P/A:P/I:P/B:N) Networks Security ID: 12116 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2006 Tenable Network Security |
