$_POST variable handling in options_identites allows for different attacks
- Date:
- 2005-07-13
- Description:
- An extract($_POST) was done in options_identities.php which allowed for an attacker to set random variables in that file. This could lead to the reading (and possible writing) of other people's preferences, cross site scripting or writing files in webserver-writable locations.
- Affected Versions:
- <= 1.4.5-RC1
- Register Globals:
- This requires the PHP register_globals setting to be On, a setting both PHP and SquirrelMail highly discourage.
- CVE ID(s):
- CVE-2005-2095

- Credits:
