DESCRIPTION:
RoMaNcYxHaCkEr has discovered a vulnerability in MODx CMS, which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "reflect_base" parameter in
assets/snippets/reflect/snippet.reflect.php is not properly verified
before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include
arbitrary files from local and external resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.

This vulnerability is confirmed in version 0.9.6.2. Other versions
may also be affected.
