dotproject multiple scripts "baseDir" parameter file include
| dotproject-multiple-basedir-file-include (24738) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
dotproject could allow a remote attacker to include malicious PHP files. If register_globals is enabled, a remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request to the includes/db_adodb.php, includes/db_connect.php, includes/session.php, modules/admin/vw_usr_roles.php, modules/public/calendar.php or modules/public/date_format.php script using the baseDir parameter to specify a malicious PHP file from the local system or a remote system, which would allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system.

- BID-16648: Dotproject Multiple Remote File Include Vulnerabilities
- CVE-2006-0755: ** DISPUTED ** Multiple PHP remote file include vulnerabilities in dotProject 2.0.1 and earlier, when register_globals is enabled, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the baseDir parameter in (1) db_adodb.php, (2) db_connect.php, (3) session.php, (4) vw_usr_roles.php, (5) calendar.php, (6) date_format.php, and (7) tasks/gantt.php; and the dPconfig[root_dir] parameter in (8) projects/gantt.php, (9) gantt2.php, and (10) vw_files.php. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, stating that the product documentation clearly recommends that the system administrator disable register_globals, and that the check.php script warns against this setting. Also, the vendor says that the protection.php/siteurl vector is incorrect because protection.php does not exist in the product.
