         Exploit condition : register_globals = on
         Note(!): regardless of php.ini settings, this code will turn your host in a blank page ...


         Vulnerability:
         this program carries a dangerous update.php script. If reachable
         in the main folder, you can delete the files with language and theme preferences:

         ...
         $step = $_GET['step'];
         ...

         ...
         elseif($step == "3") {

         echo "Rearranging files for compatibility with pluck 4.5...<br>";

         copy("data/title.dat", "data/settings/title.dat");

         unlink("data/settings/install.dat");
         copy("data/install.dat", "data/settings/install.dat");

         copy("data/options.php", "data/settings/options.php");

         copy("data/pass.php", "data/settings/pass.php");

         unlink("data/settings/langpref.php");
         copy("data/inc/lang/langpref.php", "data/settings/langpref.php");

         unlink("data/settings/themepref.php");
         copy("data/inc/themes/themepref.php", "data/settings/themepref.php");
         ...

         see the unlink() calls... the subsequent copy() has no results if you
         don't place the source files there...

         Now look at index.php, lines 21-26:
         
         ...
         //Include security-enhancements
         include ("data/inc/security.php");
         //Include Translation data
         include ("data/settings/langpref.php");
         include ("data/inc/lang/en.php");
         include ("data/inc/lang/$langpref");
         ...

         The script now fails to include the langpref.php script and "langpref" variable is not initialized then,
         ***if register_globals=on*** you can include arbitraty files from local resources.
        
         This check in security.php doesn't work as expected :
         ... 
         //Register Globals
         //If Register Globals are ON, unset injected variables
         if(isset($_REQUEST)) {
	   foreach ($_REQUEST as $key => $value) { 
		if(isset($GLOBALS[$key])) {
			unset($GLOBALS[$key]); 
		    }
	      }
         }
         ...
         ex: http://host/path/index.php?GLOBALS[langpref]=1

         It unsets the "GLOBALS" key from the GLOBALS[] array, while langpref variable remains
         overwritten...

         You can include the /data/inc/page_editmeta.php script which contains a nice php injection:

         ...
         if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
         $data = "data/content/$editmeta";
         include("data/inc/page_stripslashes.php");
         $file = fopen($data, "w");  
         fputs($file, "<?php 
         \$title = \"$title\";
         \$content = \"$content\";
         \$contactinc = \"$contactinc\";
         \$hidden = \"$hidden\";
         \$description = \"$cont1\";
         \$keywords = \"$sleutel\";
         \$copyright = \"$copyr\";");
         //Check if we also need to include albums
         if ($incalbum) {
         foreach ($incalbum as $name => $value) {
         fputs($file, "\n\$incalbum['$name'] = \"yes\";");
         } }
         //Check if we also need to include blogs
         if ($incblog) {
         foreach ($incblog as $name => $value) {
         fputs($file, "\n\$incblog['$name'] = \"yes\";");
         } }
         fputs($file, "\n ?>");
         fclose($file); 
         ...

         also this check in /data/inc/page_editmeta.php is unuseful because
         you call it from the main script:
         
         ...
         //Make sure the file isn't accessed directly
         if((!ereg("index.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])) && (!ereg("admin.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])) && (!ereg("install.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])) && (!ereg("login.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))){
         //Give out an "access denied" error
         echo "access denied";
         //Block all other code
         exit();
         }
         ...

         We choose the /data/count.php to inject a php shell then you can launch commands on the target server.
