Title: DokuWiki Remote PHP Script Code Injection Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

DokuWiki is a web-based wiki application; it is written in PHP.

DokuWiki is prone to a remote PHP code-injection vulnerability.

This issue is due to improper input-validation in the AJAX spellchecking service script. This issue requires that 'register_globals' be enabled in PHP.

An attacker can exploit this issue to facilitate a compromise of the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.
