Discussion

Ultimate PHP Board Add.PHP Path Disclosure Vulnerability

Ultimate PHP Board (UPB) is a freely available, open source PHP Bulletin Board. It is available for the Unix and Linux operating systems.

Under some circumstances, it may be possible to gain access to sensitive information, such as the installation path of UPB. By passing an erroneous request to the add.php script, UPB may return the full path to the installation. This could lead to the disclosure of sensitive information, and potentially lead to further attack.
