Cutenews · Cutenews · CVE-2006-1925
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
CuteNews version 1.4.1
**Description**
A directory traversal issue exists in the editnews module, allowing remote attackers to read or modify files via the `source` parameter in certain actions. This can also lead to resultant XSS when the target file does not exist.
**Recommendations**
For CuteNews version 1.4.1, consider restricting access to the `source` parameter in the editnews module to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the `source` parameter in the affected actions until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
