What they could let someone do.

What could happen

  • Reading files

    Someone could read files on the server they should never see, such as the settings file holding the database password, or delete files the site needs.

    How: The software takes a file name from a request and does not check that it stays inside its own folder.

  • Forged requests

    Someone could get a signed in administrator to change something without knowing, such as adding a new admin or changing settings, just by visiting a page.

    How: The software does not check that a change came from its own pages, so another site can quietly send one through the administrator's browser.
