Description:
Jerome Athias has reported a vulnerability in the Cash_Mod module for phpBB, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "phpbb_root_path" parameter 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" and "allow_url_fopen" are enabled.
