The .dirsys/modules/auth.php script does not restrict access to logged in users and can be exploited to delete the auth.inc.php file and create a new auth.inc.php file. This can be further exploited to log in as administrator, edit the config.inc.php file, and execute arbitrary PHP code. Successful exploitation requires that the web server has write access to the .dirsys/modules/auth/ directory and the .dirsys/modules/auth/auth.inc.php file. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.05. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict access to JBC Explorer (e.g. with ".htaccess"). Use another product.
