Web//News Remote File Include Vulnerability

Web//News is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue to include an arbitrary remote file containing malicious PHP code and execute it in the context of the webserver process. This may facilitate a compromise of the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied input is properly sanitized.
