phpwcms spaw_root Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to read a local file using phpwcms Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible to remote file inclusion attacks. Description : The remote host is running phpwcms, an open-source content management system written in PHP. The version of phpwcms installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'spaw_root' parameter before using it in PHP include() functions in the 'include/inc_ext/spaw/spaw_control.class.php' script. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this flaw to view arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from third-party hosts.
