Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Janek Vind has reported a vulnerability in FCKEditor, 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 in editor/filemanager/upload/php/upload.php when a filename has multiple file extensions. This can be exploited to upload malicious script files (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).

The vulnerability is reported in version 2.4.3. Prior versions may also be affected.
