Background |
| 25 |
========== |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Gallery is a web application written in PHP which is used to organize |
| 28 |

| 29 |
maintain their own albums. It also supports the mirroring of images on |
| 30 |
other servers. |

Description |
| 41 |
=========== |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
There is a vulnerability in the Gallery photo album software which may |
| 44 |
allow an attacker to gain administrator privileges within Gallery. A |
| 45 |
Gallery administrator has full access to all albums and photos on the |
| 46 |
server, thus attackers may add or delete photos at will. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
Impact |
| 49 |
====== |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Attackers may gain full access to all Gallery albums. There is no risk |
| 52 |
to the webserver itself, or the server on which it runs. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
Workaround |
| 55 |
========== |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
There is no known workaround at this time. All users are encouraged to |
| 58 |
upgrade to the latest available version. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Resolution |
| 61 |
========== |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
All users should upgrade to the latest available version of Gallery. |
