Discussion

FCKeditor Unspecified Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability

FCKeditor is prone to an unspecified arbitrary-file-upload vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to upload arbitrary code and execute it in the context of the webserver process. This may facilitate unauthorized access or privilege escalation; other attacks are also possible.

This issue affects FCKeditor 2.4.3 when file uploads are enabled in 'config.php'; other versions may also be vulnerable.
