Hi all,

This is a notification that the remote file inclusion vulnerabilities reported 

in CVE-2007-5631 have been fixed in PeopleAggregator v1.2pre6-release-55, and 

are not exploitable if PHP's register_globals directive is disabled.


CVE entry: http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5631


-----

Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in PeopleAggregator 1.2pre6 

allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the 

current_blockmodule_path parameter to (1) 

AudiosMediaGalleryModule/AudiosMediaGalleryModule.php, (2) 

ImagesMediaGalleryModule/ImagesMediaGalleryModule.php, (3) 

MembersFacewallModule/MembersFacewallModule.php, (4) 

NewestGroupsModule/NewestGroupsModule.php, (5) 

UploadMediaModule/UploadMediaModule.php, and (6) 

VideosMediaGalleryModule/VideosMediaGalleryModule.php in BetaBlockModules/; and 

(7) the path_prefix parameter to several components.

-----

        

Notes from vendor: To be exploitable, the web server must be configured with 

PHP's register_globals directive ON.  To fix a vulnerable installation, either 

turn register_globals OFF in php.ini or via the php_flag Apache option, or 

upgrade to v1.2pre6-release-55.
