Description

PHPAdsNew contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to remotely execute arbitrary code. The issue is triggered when an attacker sends a specially crafted HTTP request that sets the includedir variable to include arbitrary files from remote web sites. It is possible that the flaw may allow an attacker to remotely execute arbitrary commands on the system with the same privileges as the webserver resulting in a loss of integrity.
