In this case, it looks legitimate for OLDER versions. See informal analysis below. The cause was dynamic variable evaluation, which is one of the features that make post-disclosure analysis really messy for PHP. Also, the vendor apparently posted the fix for the version that Tom looked at: http://carbonize.co.uk/Lazarus/Forum/index.php?topic=1164.0 The vendor calls it "XSS" which is a typical confusion with RFI, but review of the code change shows it's relevant to RFI. There's still dynamic variable evaluation for every GPC parameter without whitelisting of variable names, so who knows if other vulnerabilities are present. - Steve
