Description:
Paul Craig has reported a vulnerability in the Avatar Mod module for Snitz Forums, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the handling of avatar uploads in avatar_upload.asp. This can be exploited to upload scripts to a location inside the web root by including a null byte in the avatar filename.
Example:
test.asp[null byte].jpg
Successful exploitation requires administrative privileges.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.3. Other versions may also be affected.
