Affected software description:  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
  
Application : QneCMS   
version : <= 2.5.6  
URL : http://www.qnecms.co.uk/

---------------------------------------------------------------------------  
  
Proof of Concept:  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
Vulnerable Script admin/include/headerscripts.php .  
  
---------------headerscripts.php--------------------------------  
...  
// check if ctype_digit is available  
  
if (!function_exists('ctype_digit')) {  
function ctype_digit($string) {  
return ( is_numeric($string) && (strpos($string, '.') === false) );  
}  
}  
// safehtmlchecker class by Simon Willison  
include_once($adminfolderpath."/include/safehtmlchecker.class");  
// check to see if there is a contentid appended to the url  
...  
------------------------------------------------------------------  
  
Variables $adminfolderpath are not properly sanitized.  
When register_globals=on and allow_fopenurl=on an attacker can exploit this vulnerability with a simple php injection script.  
  
also affected files:  
  
admin/include/footerhome.php  
admin/include/footermain.php  
photogallery/headerscripts.php  
templates/footerhome.php  
templates/footermain.php  
templates/headermain.php  
templates/sitemapfooter.php  
templates/sitemapheader.php

Solution:  
~~~~~~~  
  
- Sanitize variable $adminfolderpath on affected files.  
- Turn off register_globals
