Discussion

Brim Multiple Remote File Include Vulnerabilities

Brim is prone to multiple remote file-include vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

A successful exploit of these issues allows an attacker to execute arbitrary server-side script code on an affected computer with the privileges of the webserver process. This may facilitate unauthorized access.

Brim versions 1.2.0pre3 and 1.2.1 are vulnerable to these issues.
