C-News <= v1.0.1 (path) Remote File Inclusion Exploit
A vulnerability exists in C-News v1.0.1 which allows a remote attacker to include a file from a remote host. The vulnerability is due to the 'path' parameter in the 'affichage/commentaires.php' script not properly sanitized before being used in an include() function call. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from remote hosts by passing a URL as the 'path' parameter. Successful exploitation requires that 'allow_url_include' is set to 'On' in the php.ini file.
Mitigation:
Ensure that 'allow_url_include' is set to 'Off' in the php.ini file.
