DESCRIPTION:
Eugene Minaev has discovered a vulnerability in Strawberry, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "text" parameter in
plugins/wacko/highlight/html.php is not properly sanitised before
being used in a "preg_replace()" call with the "e" modifier. This can
be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.1.1. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
