Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in mxBB Mx Glance 2.3.3. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is an unknown code of the file contrib/mx_glance_sdesc.php of the component Security Check. The manipulation of the argument affected with an unknown input leads to a code injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-94. The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

contrib/mx_glance_sdesc.php in the mx_glance 2.3.3 module for mxBB places a critical security check within a comment because of a missing comment delimiter, which allows remote attackers to conduct remote file inclusion attacks and execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the mx_root_path parameter. NOTE: some sources incorrectly state that phpbb_root_path is the affected parameter.
