DESCRIPTION:
Kacper has reported a vulnerability in AlberT-EasySite, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "PSA_PATH" parameter in
AES/modules/auth/phpsecurityadmin/include/logout.php is not properly
verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary PHP code by including files from local or external
resources.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.0a5. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
Set "register_globals" to "Off".
