SysCP Code Execution
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
" <http://www.syscp.de/> SysCP, the System Control Panel is a server
administration tool which enables an internet service provider to give
their customers a web-based application to administrate their email
addresses, their subdomains etc."
By using global variables, attackers can inject code into SysCP and cause
it to execute arbitrary code on the system.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* SysCP version 1.2.10 and prior
Immune Systems:
* SysCP version 1.2.11
With the PHP configuration flag "register_globals On" (which is still the
case for a large installation base), a number of variables of SysCP can be
injected, leading to the execution of arbitrary remote code, which can
also be included from a remote server. This can lead to complete system
compromise, and setting backdoors, steal information, or change system
settings.
