The product allows user input to control or influence paths or file names that are used in filesystem operations. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

** DISPUTED ** Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in the Content Management module ("Content manager") for PHProjekt 0.6.1, when register_globals is enabled, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via the path_pre parameter in (1) cm_lib.inc.php, (2) doc/br.edithelp.php, (3) doc/de.edithelp.php, (4) doc/ct.edithelp.php, (5) userrating.php, and (6) listing.php, a different set of vectors than CVE-2006-4204. NOTE: a third-party researcher has disputed the impact of the cm_lib.inc.php vector, stating that it is limited to local file inclusion. CVE analysis as of 20060905 concurs, although use of ftp URLs is also possible. The remaining five vectors have also been disputed by the same third party, stating that the path_pre variable is initialized before it is used.

The weakness was released 08/21/2006 by The Master (D3nGeR) (Website). The advisory is shared for download at vupen.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2006-4609 since 09/06/2006.
