TITLE:
RunCms PHP Code Execution and Local File Inclusion

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA27790

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/27790/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Exposure of system information, Exposure of
sensitive information, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
RunCms 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/4808/

DESCRIPTION:
trueend5 has discovered some vulnerabilities in RunCms, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and
compromise a vulnerable system.

1) The vulnerability is caused due to improper authentication
verification in modules/newbb_plus/admin/forum_config.php. This can
be exploited to edit modules/newbb_plus/cache/disclaimer.php, which
in turn can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that the
newbb_plus module has not been installed.

NOTE: Other modules are reportedly also affected.

2) Input passed to the "xoopsOption[pagetype]" parameter in
modules/news/index.php is not properly verified before being used to
include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from
local resources via directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.6. Other versions may
also be affected.

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

Use another product.
