CVE-2008-6806 · published 17 years ago
Summary

The imageupload.php file in 7Shop versions 1.1 and earlier lets anyone upload files without proper checks. An attacker could place a malicious program in the images folder and then run it on the server, potentially taking control of the site. Update to a patched version or remove the unsafe upload feature and enforce file type restrictions.
