Gallery Zipcart Module Arbitrary File Disclosure

medium Nessus Plugin ID 21018

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that has an information disclosure issue.

Description

The installation of Gallery hosted on the remote web server allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to use the ZipCart module to retrieve arbitrary files, subject to the privileges of the web server user id.

Note that successful exploitation requires that the ZipCart module is installed and activated on the Gallery install.

Note that the application is also reportedly affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'Add Image From Web' feature as well as an information disclosure with the install log; however, Nessus has not tested for these additional issues.

Solution

Deactivate the ZipCart module or upgrade to Gallery version 2.0.2 or later.
