Otomi · Otomigenx · CVE-2008-2782
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
OtomiGenX version 2.2
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files. This is achieved by exploiting directory traversal vulnerabilities using a .. (dot dot) in the `lang` parameter to specific API endpoints, such as "library rss.php" and "rss.php".
**Recommendations**
For OtomiGenX version 2.2, consider restricting access to the `lang` parameter in the affected API endpoints "library rss.php" and "rss.php" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, avoid using the `lang` parameter with unvalidated input until a fix is available.
