Mambo MostlyCE Remote File-Include Vulnerability
Mambo MostlyCE is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible. An attacker can exploit this issue by sending a maliciously crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable application. The request should include a specially crafted URL that contains a malicious file path.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized. Additionally, applications should be kept up-to-date with the latest security patches.
