| Detailed Description |
The Gallery software has a remote file include vulnerability(3) in the init.php script file. Bharat Mediratta Gallery is a Web-based software product that lets you manage photos on any Web site that offers PHP support. Gallery version 1.4.1 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to include malicious PHP files, caused by a vulnerability in the init.php script. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request to the init.php script using the '?HTTP_POST_VARS[GALLERY_BASEDIR]' variable that specifies a malicious PHP file from a remote system as a parameter, which would allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the vulnerable Web server with the privileges of the Web server.
