Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51736
Category:CGI abuses
Title:pMachine code injection and file disclosure
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

pMachine 4.2 suffers from a code injection attack
and arbitrary file disclosure vulnerability.

The 'mail_autocheck.php' script does not sanitize
user input, allowing attackers to perform attacks
such as the reading of abritrary files on the remote
system, or worse, injecting code via a URL inclusion.

Solution: None available. While it _may_ be possible
to thwart this attack by disabling the 'register_globals'
variable, you may not be able to do so dependent on
other applications on your system. It should be noted
that while BID 12597 recommends disabling allow_url_fopen,
doing so will not prevent a malicious user from reading
abitrary fiels such as your password file.

Further, this package is no longer maintained by the
vendor. It is recommend you remove this software from
your system.

Risk factor : High

CVSS Score:
7.5
