Impact |
| 54 |
====== |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Remote attackers could send specially crafted requests to a server |
| 57 |
running Gallery, allowing for the execution of arbitrary code when |
| 58 |
register_globals is enabled, or read arbitrary files via directory |
| 59 |
traversals otherwise. Attackers could also entice users to visit |
| 60 |
crafted links allowing for theft of login credentials. |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Workaround |
| 63 |
========== |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Resolution |
| 68 |
