This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in the context of an affected site. 2) Input passed to the "lang" parameter in [installation path]/index.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks and URL-encoded NULL bytes. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled. These vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.7. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised and verified.
