PHPNuke-Clan <= v4.2.0 (mvcw_conver.php) Remote File Inclusion

The vulnerability exists in the $vwar_root parameter in the modules/vwar/convert/mvcw_conver.php file. An attacker can include remote files by manipulating the 'vwar_root' parameter. This can lead to remote code execution or information disclosure.

Mitigation:

No update from the vendor has been released. A quick fix is to modify the modules/vwar/convert/mvcw_conver.php file by adding the line '$vwar_root = "./../";' before the line '// clean tables'.
