Discussion

BIGACE 'GLOBALS[_BIGACE][DIR]' Parameter Multiple Remote File Include Vulnerabilities

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

An attacker can exploit these issues to include arbitrary remote PHP code and execute it in the context of the webserver process.

A successful exploit may lead to a compromise of the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.

BIGACE 2.4 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
