Description:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in Gallery, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "stepOrder[]" parameter in "upgrade/index.php" and "install/index.php" isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.
Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled and that "register_globals" is enabled.
This can further be exploited to include arbitrary PHP code injected into "g2data/plugins_data/modules/watermark".
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.0.3, and has also been reported in prior versions and in the 2.1 release candidates.
Solution:
Update to version 2.0.4.
