Signature Detail

HTTP: 4images Remote File Inclusion

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known remote file inclusion vulnerability in 4images. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in download.php, categories.php or global.php scripts. A remote attacker can exploit this by enticing a target to open a malicious URL link. A successful attack can result in arbitrary code execution and loss of sensitive information.

Extended Description

4images is prone to multiple remote file-include vulnerabilities and an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary server-side script code on an affected computer in the context of the webserver process or compromise the application, access or modify data, exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database, or bypass the authentication control. 4images 1.7.9 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
