PHP Upload Center "footerpage" and "language" PHP File Inclusion Vulnerabilities


Description   Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in PHP Upload Center, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands.
The first flaw is due to an input validation error in the "activate.php" script that does not validate the "footerpage" parameter, which could be exploited by remote attackers to include malicious files and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web server.
The second issue is due to an input validation error in the "activate.php" script that does not validate the "language" parameter, which could be exploited by remote attackers to include or disclose the contents of arbitrary files with the privileges of the web server.
