Another Mambo component remote inclusion vulneribility
A remote inclusion vulnerability was found in the Mambo component download.php file. The vulnerability is caused due to the improper validation of user-supplied input in the 'phpbb_root_path' parameter. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from remote locations by using directory traversal sequences and URL encoded NULL bytes.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to prevent directory traversal attacks. Additionally, the application should be configured to only include files from trusted locations.
