SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/32379/

CRITICAL:

IMPACT:

WHERE:

SOFTWARE:
phpcrs 2.x
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/20216/

DESCRIPTION:
Pepelux has discovered a vulnerability in phpcrs, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

Input passed to the "importFunction" parameter in frame.php (when
"btnStartImport" is set to a non NULL value) is not properly verified
before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include
arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal
attacks.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.

This vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.06. Other versions may
also be affected.

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