- [A] Local File Inclusion

[-] Risk: low
[-] File affected: admin.php

This bug allows a privileged user to include local
files. I decided to publish this bug for reporting
security flaw only. The following is the vulnerable
code:

...

$module =  (isset($_GET['module']))?
$_GET['module']:$cf->config['default_module_admin'];

...

}else{
        // Mise a jour de la date d'activite de la session fondateur
        if ($cf->config['activer_digicode']) $_SESSION['digicode_TTL'] = time();
        if (file_exists($root.$module))
        {
                include_once($root.$module);
                
...
