(Trac: File upload vulnerability)

    Stefan Esser of the Hardened-PHP project discovered that Trac
    fails to validate the 'id' parameter when uploading attachments to the
    wiki or the bug tracking system.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could exploit the vulnerability to upload
    arbitrary files to a directory where the webserver has write access to,
    possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.");
