CVE ID:	CVE-2005-3416
Description:	phpBB 2.0.17 and earlier, when register_globals is enabled and the session_start function has not been called to handle a session, allows remote attackers to bypass security checks by setting the $_SESSION and $HTTP_SESSION_VARS variables to strings instead of arrays, which causes an array_merge function call to fail.
Test IDs:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.56053
