SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21688

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21688/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
MiniBill 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/11765/

DESCRIPTION:
the master has discovered a vulnerability in MiniBill, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "config[include_dir]" parameter in
actions/ipn.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 1.2:2. Other versions
may also be affected.

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

Set "register_globals" to "Off".

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
the master
