Solution

Unknown

Description

DUarticle contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to gain administrative privileges. The issue is due to improper authentication verification when accessing different include files. While the program will require authentication for inc_edit.asp include file, it fails to authenticate on requests to the inc_menu.asp include file. This allows an attacker to directly request the file with administrative priveleges.

Classification

Unknown or Incomplete
