StarDevelop LiveHelp Local File Include Vulnerability
The StarDevelop LiveHelp application is prone to a local file-include vulnerability. This vulnerability occurs due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to obtain potentially sensitive information and execute arbitrary local scripts within the context of the web server process. This could lead to the compromise of the application and the underlying computer. Other attacks may also be possible.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize and validate user-supplied input before using it to include local files. Additionally, access controls should be implemented to restrict unauthorized access to sensitive files and directories.
