PostNuke Arbitrary Module Inclusion Vulnerability

A vulnerability has been reported in some versions of PostNuke. Reportedly, it is possible to force the script user.php to include arbitrary modules. These files may be hosted remotely and contain arbitrary code, which will then be executed by the vulnerable system.

Mitigation:

Ensure that the user.php script is not accessible from the web, or that it is not vulnerable to arbitrary module inclusion.
