Vulnerability Reference: http://www.qsecure.com.cy/advisories/arbitary_file_upload_in_elxis_cms_eforum.html

VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION:
==========================
The script "/eforum.php" is prone to an arbitrary file-upload vulnerability because it fails to properly filter dangerous file extensions.

An attacker can exploit this issue to upload an arbitrary remote file (e.g. .phtml) containing malicious PHP code and to execute it in the context of the webserver process. This may allow the attacker to compromise the application and the underlying system.
