The security issue is caused due to the application not properly restricting access to the administrative scripts residing within the "admin/" directory. This can be exploited to e.g. upload files to the web server. This security issue is confirmed in version 1.1.4 pl3. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict access to the "admin/" directory (e.g. using a ".htaccess" file).
