Multiple Vulnerabilities in WordPress Social Discussions Plugin
The script 'social-discussions-networkpub_ajax.php' line 2 expects old-style array 'HTTP_ENV_VARS' to be initialized and containing 'DOCUMENT_ROOT' entry. But it appears, that if PHP directive 'register_long_arrays=off', then 'HTTP_ENV_VARS' is uninitialized and if in same time 'register_globals=on', it is possible to fill that array with any value, leading to the RFI (Remote File Inclusion) vulnerability.
Mitigation:
Ensure that register_long_arrays is set to 'on' and register_globals is set to 'off'
