Coppermine Photo Gallery index.php file Parameter Local File Inclusion

high Nessus Plugin ID 21240

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP script that is affected by a local file include issue.

Description

The version of Coppermine Gallery installed on the remote host fails to properly sanitize input to the 'file' parameter of the 'index.php' script before using it in a PHP 'include_once()' function. Regardless of PHP's 'register_globals' setting, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to view arbitrary files or to execute arbitrary PHP code on the remote host, subject to the privileges of the web server user id.

Solution

Upgrade to Coppermine version 1.4.5 or later.
