Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains several PHP scripts that are prone to multiple flaws, including arbitrary file inclusion.Description
The version of yappa-ng installed on the remote host is prone to multiple file include and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities due to its failure to sanitize user-supplied script input when calling various include scripts directly.By exploiting the file include vulnerabilities, an attacker can read arbitrary files on the remote host and possibly even run arbitrary code, subject to the privileges of the web server process. And by exploiting the cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, he can cause arbitrary script and HTML code to be run in a user's browser within the context of the affected website.
Solution
Upgrade to yappa-ng 2.3.2 or later.See Also
