Description:
str0ke has discovered some vulnerabilities in Basic Analysis and Security Engine, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "BASE_path" parameter in base_qry_common.php, base_stat_common.php, and base_include.inc.php isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.2.4. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 1.2.5.
