SPiD lang_path Remote File Include Vulnerability |
||
|
Checks for lang_path variable file include vulnerability in SPiD Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP script that is affected by a remote file include issue. Description : The remote host is running SPiD, a free, PHP-based photo gallery. The installed version of SPiD permits remote attackers to control the 'lang_path' variable used when including PHP code in the 'lang/lang.php' script. By leveraging this flaw, a possible hacker may be able to view arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from third-party hosts. See also : http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2005/Jul/1014437.html Solution : Either ensure that PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting is enabled and that 'permit_url_fopen' and 'register_globals' are disabled or upgrade to SPiD version 1.3.1. 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: 14208 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2006 Tenable Network Security |
