Published:2005-05-05

Summary:PHP-Nuke could allow a remote attacker to include malicious PHP files caused by improper validation of user-supplied input in the phpbb_root_path parameter in the admin_styles.php script. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted URL to the admin_styles.php script using the phpbb_root_path parameter to specify a malicious file to be included from the local system which would allow the attacker to view or execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system.
