Detailed Description |
The PHP iCalendar is vulnerable to a local file include vulnerability via the 'phpicalendar' cookie. PHP iCalendar is a web-based calendar viewer / parser written in PHP. PHP iCalendar version 2.21 and earlier versions could allow a remote attacker to include and execute arbitrary local files via directory traversal sequences and a NULL (%00) character in the 'phpicalendar[cookie_language]' and 'phpicalendar[cookie_style]' parameters in the 'phpicalendar' cookie. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to view arbitrary files and possibly to execute arbitrary local files on the affected host.
