Description:
RedTeam has reported two vulnerabilities in PAJAX, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
1) Input passed to the "method" and "args" parameters in pajax_call_dispatcher.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code on the system.
2) Input passed to the "className" variable is not properly sanitised before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary .class.php files on the system via directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 0.5.1. Prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 0.5.2.
