Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in phplist, which potentially can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to the "admin/FCKeditor/editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/phplist/connector.php" script improperly validating the extensions of uploaded files. This can potentially be exploited to upload files containing malicious file extensions and e.g. execute arbitrary PHP code.
