X2Engine < 4.0 ProfileController.php Unrestricted File Upload Vulnerability

high Nessus Plugin ID 81515

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by a file upload vulnerability.

Description

According to its version number, the X2Engine application installed on the remote web server is prior to version 4.0. It is, therefore, potentially affected by a file upload vulnerability in the '/protected/controllers/ProfileController.php' script. An attacker can exploit this issue to upload arbitrary code to the remote host to be executed within the context of the web server user.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to version 4.0 or later.
