Description: A vulnerability has been discovered in MyKtools, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information.
Input passed to the "langage" parameter in configuration_script.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include files from local resources via directory traversal attacks and URL-encoded NULL bytes.
Successful exploitation requires valid administrator credentials and that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.0. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution: Restrict access to the application (e.g. with ".htaccess").
Provided and/or discovered by: x0r and an anonymous person
