Description:
A vulnerability has been discovered in Kwalbum, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.
A vulnerability is caused due to improper restrictions in "ReplaceBadFilenameChars()" on what file types users are allowed to upload. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code.
Successful exploitation requires an account on the Kwalbum site with privileges to upload files and requires that PICS_PATH resides within the webroot.
This vulnerability is confirmed in versions 2.0.2 and 2.0.4. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
