DESCRIPTION:
nuffsaid has reported some vulnerabilities in phpPowerCards, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.
Input passed to multiple parameters in db/txt.inc.php is not properly
verified and sanitised before being used to write to a file. This can
be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerability is reported in 2.10. Other versions may also be
affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified and
sanitised.
