xoops nocommon Parameter Local File Include Vulnerability |
||
|
Tries to read a local file using Xoops Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is vulnerable to local file include attacks. Description : The version of xoops installed on the remote host permits an unauthenticated attacker to skip processing of the application's 'include/common.php' script and thereby to gain control of the variables '$xoopsConfig[language]' and '$xoopsConfig[theme_set]', which are used by various scripts to include PHP code from other files. Successful exploitation of these issues requires that PHP's 'register_globals' setting be enabled and can be used to view arbitrary files or to execute arbitrary PHP code on the remote host, subject to the rights of the web server user id.
