TITLE:
Aprox PHP Portal Arbitrary Local File Inclusion Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA10779

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://www.secunia.com/advisories/10779/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Aprox PHP Portal 3.x

DESCRIPTION:
Zero_X has reported a vulnerability in Aprox PHP Portal, allowing
malicious people to view the contents of arbitrary local files.

The problem is that the "show" parameter isn't properly verified
before being used to include files. It is possible to supply
arbitrary local paths and file names, which also can be exploited to
execute arbitrary local PHP code.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 3. Prior versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source to ensure that the "show" parameter is verified
properly.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Zero_X
