YaPiG < 0.92.2 Multiple Scripts Arbitrary Command Execution

high Nessus Plugin ID 14269

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to arbitrary PHP code injection vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host is running YaPiG, a web-based image gallery written in PHP.

The remote version of YaPiG may allow a remote attacker to execute malicious scripts on a vulnerable system. This issue exists due to a lack of sanitization of user-supplied data. It is reported that an attacker may be able to upload content that will be saved on the server with a '.php' extension. When this file is requested by the attacker, the contents of the file will be parsed and executed by the PHP engine, rather than being sent. Successful exploitation of this issue may allow an attacker to execute malicious script code on a vulnerable server.

Solution

Upgrade to YaPiG 0.92.2 or later.
