TITLE:
osDate "config[forum_installed]" File Inclusion Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA38943

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38943/

DESCRIPTION:
NoGe has discovered some vulnerabilities in osDate, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "config[forum_installed]" parameter in
forum/adminLogin.php and forum/userLogin.php is not properly verified
before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include
arbitrary files from local or external resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled
and "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.5.4. Other versions may
also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
