CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
ActionApps 2.x

DESCRIPTION:
Kacper has discovered some vulnerabilities in ActionApps, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "GLOBALS[AA_INC_PATH]" parameter in multiple
files is not properly sanitised before being used to include files.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by including
files from local or external resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 2.8.1. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
