Description:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in Linpha, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and potentially to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "lang" parameter in docs/index.php isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources. If the Logger plugin is enabled and user login events are logged to a file, then it is possible to execute arbitrary PHP code by inserting PHP code in the username that is logged to the file.
Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions may also be affected.
Note: It has also been reported that local file inclusion vulnerabilities also exists in the installation scripts. The vendor has recommended that such scripts be removed after installation is complete.
Solution:
Update to version 1.1.0.
