Pithcms 0.9.5 Local Include Exploit
Pithcms 0.9.5 is vulnerable to a local include exploit. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable server, containing an arbitrary file path in the 'lang' parameter. This will allow the attacker to read the contents of the file, such as the /etc/passwd file.
Mitigation:
The best way to mitigate this vulnerability is to ensure that the application is not vulnerable to local file inclusion attacks. This can be done by validating user input and ensuring that only trusted files are included in the application.
