Advanced GuestBook for phpBB <= 2.4.0 Remote File Inclusion Exploit
Advanced GuestBook for phpBB <= 2.4.0 is vulnerable to a remote file inclusion vulnerability. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable server. The vulnerability is due to the 'phpbb_root_path' parameter in the 'addentry.php' script not being properly sanitized before being used in a 'require_once' function call. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from remote hosts and execute arbitrary PHP code.
Mitigation:
The vendor has released a patch to address this vulnerability. Users should upgrade to the latest version of Advanced GuestBook for phpBB.
