GuppY <= 4.5.9 Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities (Traversal, Code Exec)

high Nessus Plugin ID 20248

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host is running GuppY, a content management system written in PHP.

The version of GuppY installed on the remote host does not sanitize user input to the server variable 'REMOTE_ADDR' before using it in the 'error.php' script as part of an include script. An unauthenticated attacker can leverage this issue to run arbitrary code on the remote host subject to the privileges of the web server user id.

In addition, the application reportedly is prone to several local file include and information disclosure vulnerabilities in scripts used for administration.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
