Description:
nuffsaid has reported some vulnerabilities in phpPowerCards, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to multiple parameters in db/txt.inc.php is not properly verified and sanitised before being used to write to a file. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability is reported in 2.10. Other versions may also be affected.
