The remote host is running fGallery, a third-party image gallery plugin for WordPress.

The version of fGallery installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the ‘album’ parameter of the ‘fim_rss.php’ script before using it in a database query. Regardless of PHP’s ‘magic_quotes_gpc’ setting, an attacker may be able to exploit this issue to manipulate database queries, leading to disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, or attacks against the underlying database.
