GimeScripts Shopping Catalog lets attackers run code remotely

CVE-2006-5923 · published 19 years ago
Summary

This means an attacker could make the server execute their own PHP code, potentially stealing data or taking control of the site. Update to the latest version or apply a patch that validates the input to stop this behavior.
