Discussion
PowerAward Multiple Local File Include and Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
PowerAward is prone to multiple local file-include vulnerabilities and a cross-site scripting vulnerability.
An attacker could exploit the local file-include issues to obtain sensitive information. Exploits of the cross-site scripting issue may allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
PowerAward 1.1.0 RC1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Exploit / POC
PowerAward Multiple Local File Include and Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
Attackers can exploit these issues via a browser. To exploit a cross-site scripting vulnerability, the attacker must entice an unsuspecting user to view a maliciously crafted URI.
The following example URIs are available:
http://www.example.com/path/agb.php?lang=[LFI]
http://www.example.com/path/angemeldet.php?lang=[LFI]
http://www.example.com/path/anmelden.php?lang=[LFI]
