UBB.threads doeditconfig Command Injection Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to exploit an command injection flaw in UBB.threads Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP script that permits injection of arbitrary PHP commands. Description : The version of UBB.threads installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the 'thispath' and 'config' parameters of the 'admin/doeditconfig.php' script before using them to update the application's configuration file. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this flaw to modify configuration settings for the affected application and even injecting arbitary PHP code to be executed whenever the config file is loaded.
