to upload arbitrary PHP files.");

"The version of TimThumb hosted on the remote web server allows an
unauthenticated, remote attacker to upload arbitrary PHP files as
specified by input to the 'src' parameter and retrieved from third-
party sites to its cache directory. It's likely that these files can
then be executed by requesting them by means of a specially crafted
URL, which would result in arbitrary code execution subject to the
privileges of the web server process.

Note that this could be by design or because of a vulnerability in the
way TimThumb validates the third-party host. Regardless, it represents
a security vulnerability as it could allow for arbitrary PHP code
execution.");
