Description

Display MOSBot Manager module for Mambo has been reported to contain a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands. The issue is supposedly due to the contxtd.class.php script not properly sanitizing user input supplied to the 'mosConfig_absolute_path' variable. However, subsequent evaluation by other researchers indicate the script specifically prevents this variable from being manipulated.
