Description:
CraCkEr has discovered a vulnerability in Hedgehog-CMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "c_temp_path" parameter in includes/header.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled. Successful exploitation from external resources (FTP servers) requires that "allow_url_fopen" and "allow_url_include" are enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.21. Other versions may also be affected.

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

Provided and/or discovered by:
