AngelineCMS loadkernel.php installPath Parameter Remote File Inclusion

high Nessus Plugin ID 21185

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote host is running AngelineCMS, an open source content management system written in PHP.

The version of AngelineCMS installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'installPath' parameter of the '/kernel/loadkernel.php' script before using it in a PHP 'include_once()' function. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to view arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from third-party hosts.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
