Ubuntu Drupal Theme - Brown images/layout/gradient.php File Disclosure

medium Nessus Plugin ID 50302

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a PHP script that is affected by a directory traversal vulnerability.

Description

The version of the Ubuntu Drupal Theme - Brown installed on the Drupal install on the remote host does not properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'start' and 'end' parameters of the 'images/layout/gradient.php' script before using it to return the contents of a file.

A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this issue to disclose the contents of sensitive files on the affected system subject to the privileges under which the web server operates.

Solution

Either remove the affected file or upgrade to Ubuntu Drupal Theme - Brown 6.x-8.1 or later.
