| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
pppBLOG versions 0.3.8 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files due to a directory traversal vulnerability in the randompic.php file when register globals is enabled. This can be achieved by using a .. (dot dot) sequence in an index of the
file array parameter.Recommendations
For pppBLOG versions 0.3.8 and earlier, consider disabling the register globals setting to mitigate the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the randompic.php file until a patch is available. Avoid using the
file array parameter in the affected file until the issue is resolved.Exploit
