CVE-2007-2087
|

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in CNStats, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "bj" parameter (version 2.9) and the "bn" parameter (version 2.12) in who_r.php and who_s.php are not properly verified before being used to include files. These can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external resources.
For version 2.12, successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled and support for ".htaccess" files is disabled.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.12 and reported in 2.9. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Set "register_globals" to "Off".
