Security issue on eevblog.com
« on: January 17, 2012, 11:20:47 pm »
Hello,

if you visit http://www.eevblog.com/page/2/ and have a look at the bottom link pointing to either "« Older Entries" or "Newer Entries »" you will see that there is an extra URL parameter appended to both of the links.

One example of such link is:  http://www.eevblog.com/page/3/?file=..%2F..%2F..%2F..%2F..%2F..%2Fproc%2Fself%2Fenviron%00

This at least indicates a failed attempt of running an exploit described here:

Thanks
Yes, I am aware of this and need to look into how to fix it.

Dave.
