SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35434
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35434/
DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Free Joke Script, which can be
exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.
The vulnerability is caused due to the webadmin/includes/security.php
script not properly restricting access to certain scripts (e.g.
webadmin/change.php). This can be exploited to e.g. change the
password of the administrator by sending specially crafted requests
to the application.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.2. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly restricted.
