Gallery save_photos.php Arbitrary Command Execution

high Nessus Plugin ID 14338

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a PHP application that is affected by a remote command execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of Gallery hosted on the remote web server is affected by an arbitrary command execution vulnerability. This could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the remote host by uploading a file containing arbitrary PHP code. When the temp directory is web accessible, the attacker has a 30 second window to access the script and execute the remote code before the file is deleted.

Note that in order to exploit this flaw, an attacker would require the privileges to upload files to a remote photo album.

Solution

Upgrade to Gallery 1.4.4-pl1 or later.
