vCard match Parameter Remote File Inclusion Vulnerability |

Checks for match parameter remote file inclusion vulnerability in vCard Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP script that is prone to a remote file include vulnerability. Description : The remote host appears to be running vCard, a web-based electronic postcard application from Belchior Foundry and written in PHP. The version of vCard installed on the remote host fails to sanitize the 'match' parameter before using it in the 'admin/define.inc.php' script to read other files. By leveraging this flaw, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to execute script files from third-party hosts. See also : http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/2005-10/0347.html Solution : Restrict access to the vCard's 'admin' directory using, say, a .htaccess file. 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: 15207 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2006 Tenable Network Security |
