Input passed via the "avatar_studio" and "avatar_select" parameters to avatar_studio.php is not properly verified before being used to create avatar images. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks and by appending e.g. a ".jpg" extension to URL-encoded NULL bytes. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.02. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
