Facil CMS index.php and modules.php file include
| facilcms-index-modules-file-include (43037) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
Facil CMS could allow a remote attacker to include arbitrary files. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL request containing a NULL byte (%00) to the index.php or modules.php script using the change_lang or modload 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.
Consequences:
Gain Access
