Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in PHP-Fusion 6.00.306 (Content Management System). This affects an unknown function of the file last_seen_users_panel.php. The manipulation of the argument localeset with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, and integrity. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in PHP-Fusion 6.00.306 allow remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via (1) a .. (dot dot) in the settings[locale] parameter in infusions/last_seen_users_panel/last_seen_users_panel.php, and (2) a .. (dot dot) in the localeset parameter in setup.php. NOTE: the vendor states that this issue might exist due to problems in third party local files.
