For PHPGedView versions 3.3.7 and earlier, update to a version later than 3.3.7 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
help text vars.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the PGV BASE DIRECTORY parameter with untrusted input until the issue is resolved.Exploit
