Ariadne CMS 2.4 - Remote File Include Vulnerability

                                                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/13206/info

A remote file include vulnerability affects Ariadne CMS. This issue is due to a failure of the application to validate critical parameters before using them in a 'require_once()' function call.

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary server-side script code on an affected computer with the privileges of the Web server process. This may facilitate unauthorized access.

UPDATE: This BID is being retired due to further information which shows the application is not vulnerable to this issue.
