Simplicity oF Upload download.php language Parameter Local File Inclusion

high Nessus Plugin ID 19334

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that suffers from a remote file include issue.

Description

The remote host is running Simplicity oF Upload, a free PHP script to manage file uploads.

The version of Simplicity oF Upload installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'language' parameter of the 'download.php' script. By leveraging this flaw, an attacker may be able to view arbitrary files on the remote host and execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly contained in files uploaded using the affected application itself.

Solution

Upgrade to Simplicity oF Upload version 1.3.1 or later.
