DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in Vikingboard, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and
spoof usernames.

1) Input passed to the "task" parameter in index.php (when "act" is
set to "task") is not properly verified before being used to include
files. This can be exploited to include files from local resources.

2) Input passed to the "user" parameter in register.php is not
properly sanitised for data that is longer than the database field.
This can be exploited to create new users with the same username as
old users.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.1.2. Other versions
may also be affected.
