GBOOK v2.0 Remote File Include Vulnerability
A vulnerability exists in GBOOK v2.0 which allows a remote attacker to include a file from a remote location. The vulnerability is due to the 'abspath' parameter in the 'header.php' script not properly sanitized before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from remote locations by passing a URL in the 'abspath' parameter.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that untrusted data is not used to include files from remote locations.
