The remote host appears to be running PHP iCalendar, a web-based iCal file viewer / parser written in PHP.

The installed version of PHP iCalendar supports iCal publishing but does not properly restrict the types of files uploaded and places them in a web-accessible directory. An unauthenticated attacker can leverage this issue to upload files with arbitrary PHP code and then run that code subject to the privileges of the web server user id.

Note that successful exploitation of this issue requires that ‘$phpicalendar_publishing’ be enabled in ‘config.inc.php’, which is not the default.
