Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Synopsis :
The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by
multiple vulnerabilities.
Description :
It is possible to make the remote host include php files hosted on a
third party server using Ashnews.

host and gain a shell with the rights of the web server.
In addition, the application reportedly fails to sanitize the 'id'
parameter before using it in dynamically-generated output, subjecting
users to cross-site scripting attacks.
