CVE-2009-5093

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Gästebuch version 1.6

Description The issue allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files due to a directory traversal vulnerability in the gastbuch.php file. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the start parameter.

Recommendations For version 1.6, consider restricting access to the gastbuch.php file until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the start parameter with .. (dot dot) sequences to minimize the risk of exploitation.
