The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the authentication
process. This can be exploited to bypass the authentication process
and access the administration section by setting the "adminloggedin",
"loggedin", and "level" parameters to "1".

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.0.7. Other versions
