Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2268)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

views/Index.php in the Install module in vTiger 6.0 before Security Patch 2 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote attackers to re-install the application via a request that sets the X-Requested-With HTTP header, as demonstrated by executing arbitrary PHP code via the db_name parameter.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
