Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions phpBB Security versions 1.0.1 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the php root path parameter. This can be achieved by manipulating the php root path parameter in the phpbb security.php file.

Recommendations For versions 1.0.1 and earlier, update to a version later than 1.0.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the phpbb security.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation.
