DESCRIPTION:
Kacper has discovered a vulnerability in PhpCommander, which can be
exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information.

Input passed to the "Directory" parameter in download.php is not
properly verified before being used to include files. This can be
exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 3.0. Other versions
may also be affected.

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