Title: YABB Multiple Local File Include Vulnerabilities
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
YaBB is a web-based bulletin board implemented in Perl.
YaBB is prone to multiple local file-include vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input to the following scripts and parameters:
Sources/HelpCentre.pl: language
Sources/Subs.pl: use_lang
Sources/ICQPager.pl: language
Sources/Post.pl: actlang
Sources/InstantMessage.pl: actlang
Exploiting these issues may allow an attacker to access potentially sensitive information that may aid in further attacks.
This issue affects YaBB 2.1 and prior versions.
Affected Products:
- YaBB YaBB 2.0
- YaBB YaBB 2.0.0
- YaBB YaBB 2.0.0 RC2
- YaBB YaBB 2.0.0 rc1
- YaBB YaBB 2.1
