Oreon file Parameter Remote File Include Vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Tries to read a local file with Oreon

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP script that is susceptible to a
remote file include vulnerability.

Description :

The remote host is running Oreon, a web-based network supervision
program based on Nagios.

The installation of Oreon on the remote host fails to sanitize input
to the 'file' parameter of the 'lang/index.php' script before using it
to include PHP code. Regardless of PHP's 'register_globals' setting,
an unauthenticated attacker may be able to 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.
