TITLE:
Pixie CMS Multiple Local File Inclusion Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA33690

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/33690/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of system information, Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Pixie CMS 1.x
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/21184/

DESCRIPTION:
DSecRG has discovered some vulnerabilities in Pixie CMS, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

1) Input passed to the "x" parameter in
admin/admin/modules/mod_settings.php (when "pixie_user" is set to a
non NULL value and "pixie_user_privs" is set to a value greater than
"1") 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.

This vulnerability is confirmed on the Windows platform.

2) Input passed to the "m" and "x" parameters in
admin/admin/modules/mod_myaccount.php (when "pixie_user" is set to a
non NULL value) 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 these vulnerabilities requires that
"register_globals" is enabled and "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

These vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions
may also be affected.

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