CVE-2008-6178

Publication date 19 February 2009

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in editor/filemanager/browser/default/connectors/php/connector.php in FCKeditor 2.2, as used in Falt4 CMS, Nuke ET, and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by creating a file with PHP sequences preceded by a ZIP header, uploading this file via a FileUpload action with the application/zip content type, and then accessing this file via a direct request to the file in UserFiles/File/, probably a related issue to CVE-2005-4094. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
