DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in Snort Report, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed via the "target" parameter to nmap.php and nbtscan.php
is not properly sanitised before being used in "exec()" calls. This
can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.3.2. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
