TITLE:
Shadowed Portal File Inclusion and PHP Code Execution

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28240

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28240/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Shadowed Portal 5.x
http://secunia.com/product/9243/

DESCRIPTION:
The:Paradox has discovered two vulnerabilities in Shadowed Portal,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

1) Input passed to the "mod_root" parameter in control.php is not
properly verified before being used to include files. This can be
exploited to include arbitrary files from external resources.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"register_globals" is enabled.

2) Input passed to the "access" parameter in control.php is not
properly sanitised before being stored. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary PHP code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 5.7d3. Other versions
may also be affected.

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

Use another product.
