Title: PHPList Index.PHP Local File Include Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
PHPList is a web-based utility to manage personalized mailing and customer lists. It is implemented in PHP with an SQL backend and will run under UNIX-variant operating systems as well as Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS X.
PHPList is prone to a local file-include vulnerability. The application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
The problem presents itself in 'lists/index.php' when the 'GLOBALS[database_module]' is not properly sanitized of directory-traversal sequences.
A successful exploit may facilitate the unauthorized viewing of files and unauthorized execution of local scripts.
Attackers may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code by manipulating log files.
