Description:
rgod has reported a vulnerability in iGENUS Webmail, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information.
Input passed to the "SG_HOME" parameter in config/config_inc.php is not properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled and "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.02. Other versions might also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
Provided and/or discovered by:
