Discussion
LinPHA Maps Plugin 'db_handler.php' Local File Include Vulnerability
LinPHA is prone to a local file-include vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability using directory-traversal strings to execute local script code in the context of the application. This may allow the attacker to access sensitive information that may aid in further attacks.
NOTE: The 'ChangeLog' file that comes with the affected package contains code that executes arbitrary commands. If the changelog is present on an affected webserver, attackers could leverage the local file-include issue to include the changelog code and execute arbitrary commands in the context of the webserver.
LinPHA 1.3.2 and 1.3.3 are vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
