Claroline Multiple RemoteVulnerabilities (RFI, Traversal, XSS)

The remote host is running Claroline, an open source, web-based, collaborative learning environment written in PHP.

The version of Claroline installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the ‘includePath’ parameter before using it in the ‘claroline/learnPath/include/scormExport.inc.php’ script to include files with PHP code. Provided PHP’s ‘register_globals’ setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to view arbitrary files on the remote host or to execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from third-party hosts.

In addition, the installation reportedly suffers from a cross-site scripting and several information disclosure vulnerabilities.
