CMS Made Simple nls Parameter File Include Vulnerability Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary Checks for nls parameter file include vulnerability in CMS Made Simple
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Synopsis :
The remote web server contains a PHP script that is vulnerable to
remote file include attacks.
Description :
The remote host appears to be running CMS Made Simple, a content
management system written in PHP.
The version of CMS Made Simple installed on the remote host fails to

'admin/lang.php' script before using it to include PHP code. By
leveraging this flaw, a possible hacker may be able to view arbitrary files
on the remote host and execute arbitrary PHP code, possibly taken from
third-party hosts.
