RunCMS xoopsOption Parameter Local File Inclusion

medium Nessus Plugin ID 28291

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible to a local file include attack.

Description

The version of RunCMS installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user input to the 'xoopsOption[pagetype]' parameter before using it to include PHP code in 'include/common.php'. Regardless of PHP's 'register_globals' setting, an unauthenticated, remote 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 privileges of the web server user id.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
