Summary

The remote version of YaPiG may allow a remote attacker to execute malicious scripts on a vulnerable system.

Insight

Insight

This issue exists due to a lack of sanitization of user-supplied data. It is reported that an attacker may be able to upload content that will be saved on the server with a '.php' extension. When this file is requested by the attacker, the contents of the file will be parsed and executed by the PHP engine, rather than being sent.

Solution

Solution

Upgrade to YaPiG 0.92.2 or later.
