DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in phpFox, which can be exploited
by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

static/ajax.php is not properly verified in the
"Phpfox_Module::getComponent()" function within
include/library/phpfox/module/module.class.php before being used in
an "eval()" call. This can be exploited to inject and execute certain
shell commands.
