CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of sensitive information

From remote

SOFTWARE:
WEBalbum 2.x

DESCRIPTION:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in WEBalbum, which can be
exploited by malicious people to gain knowledge of potentially
sensitive information.

Input passed to the "skin2" cookie parameter isn't properly verified,
before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include
arbitrary files from local resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.02. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
