CVE-2012-0998

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions LEPTON versions prior to 1.1.4

Description A directory traversal issue exists, allowing remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary files. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the language parameter of the account/preferences.php file.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.1.4, update to version 1.1.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the account/preferences.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the language parameter in the affected file until the issue is resolved.
