Description
It is possible to make the remote host include PHP files hosted on a
third-party server using Invision Power Board. The ipchat.php script
fails to sanitize input passed to the ‘root_path’ parameter.
An attacker may use this flaw to inject arbitrary code in the remote
host and gain a shell with the privileges of the web server.
In addition, the ad_member.php script has been reported vulnerable.
However, Nessus has not checked for that script.
