DESCRIPTION:
beford has discovered a vulnerability in Plume CMS, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "_PX_config[manager_path]" parameter in
"/manager/frontinc/prepend.php" isn't properly verified, before it is
used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary
files from external and local resources.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.0.3. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
