Album and Image Gallery with Lightbox – Flagallery Photo Portfolio <= 2.00 - Arbitrary File Modification
Strategic Overview
<= 2.00N/AVulnerability Overview
The Album and Image Gallery with Lightbox – Flagallery Photo Portfolio plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file modification in versions up to, and including, 2.00. This is due to unsanitized user input on the 'settingsXML', and 'mainXML' parameters in the admin/skin_options.php file, and the 'skin_name' and 'mainXML' parameters in the lib/constructor.php file. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to prepend content to any file on the system, which can lead to remote code execution.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.10, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')) The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
