CVE-2004-1427

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in main.inc in KorWeblog 1.6.2-cvs and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by modifying the G_PATH parameter to reference a URL on a remote web server that contains the code, as demonstrated in index.php when using .. (dot dot) sequences in the lng parameter to cause main.inc to be loaded.

Risk Assessment

The risk for the organization is the possibility of remote arbitrary PHP code execution, which could lead to server compromise, data theft, or further propagation of the attack within the internal network.

Recommendation

Immediately update KorWeblog to a version later than 1.6.2-cvs that fixes this vulnerability. If an update is not possible, disable or secure the G_PATH parameter against remote file inclusion.
