Description:
RoMaNcYxHaCkEr has reported some vulnerabilities in SafeHTML, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "dir[plugins]" parameter in HTMLSax3.php and safehtml.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.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
