Local File Include Vulnerability in Weekly Drawing Contest
The Weekly Drawing Contest is vulnerable to a local file-include vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an unauthorized user to view local files on the affected webserver. An attacker can exploit this issue by supplying a specially crafted payload in the 'order' parameter of the 'check_vote.php' script.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to properly sanitize and validate user-supplied input before using it in file inclusion operations. Additionally, access controls should be implemented to restrict unauthorized access to sensitive files.
