ZPanel page Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Tries to read a local file with ZPanel

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible
to remote file include attacks.

Description :

The remote host is running ZPanel, an open-source hosting control
panel written in PHP.

The installation of ZPanel on the remote host fails to sanitize user-
supplied input to the 'page' and 'body' parameters of the 'zpanel.php'
and 'templates/ZPanelV2/template.php' scripts respectively before
using it to include PHP code. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit
this issue to view arbitrary files or to execute arbitrary PHP code on
the remote host, subject to the rights of the web server user id.

Note that exploitation of this issue via 'zpanel.php' does not require
that PHP's 'register_globals' setting be enabled.

Solution :

Unknown at this time.
