cPanel is prone to a remote privilege-escalation vulnerability.

A remote attacker can exploit this issue to gain administrative access to the affected application. This may lead to other attacks.

<!- for use old cpanel exploit ( http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/2466 ) you need have
<!- bash shell access on victim server but with this new exploit you only need
<!- to upload php file and run this into browser on victim servers.
<!- then you have root Access and you can do anything ....
