Description:
r0ut3r has reported a vulnerability in Vote! Pro, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise vulnerable systems.

Input passed to the "poll_id" parameter in poll_frame.php is not properly sanitised before being used in "eval()" calls. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code via a specially crafted parameter value.

NOTE: The "poll_id" eval() issue reportedly affects many other scripts in the product.

The vulnerability is reported in version 4.0. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
