Description:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in DeluxeBB, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the handling of file uploads where a filename has multiple file extensions. This can be exploited to upload malicious script files inside the web root (e.g. a PHP script).
Successful exploitation may allow execution of script code depending on the HTTP server configuration (it requires e.g. an Apache server with the "mod_mime" module installed), but requires knowledge of the filename used to save the uploaded attachment.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.06. Other versions may also be affected.
