CRITICAL:

SOFTWARE:
MapLab 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/13830/

DESCRIPTION:
Mufti Rizal has discovered a vulnerability in MapLab, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "gszAppPath" parameter in gmapfactory/params.php
is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can
be exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external
resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.2.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

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

Set "register_globals" to "Off".
