Mini File Host upload.php file include
| minifilehost-uploadphp-file-include (39799) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
Mini File Host could allow a remote attacker to include arbitrary files. If register_globals is enabled and magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, a remote attacker could send a specially-crafted POST request to the upload.php script using the language parameter to specify a malicious file from the local system, which could allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information or execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable Web server.
Note: In order to exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code, the attacker would first be required to upload a malicious file or inject arbitrary commands into an existing file.
