CVE-2005-0743
HighSummary
The custom avatar uploading feature (uploader.php) in XOOPS 2.0.9.2 and earlier does not filter file extensions, allowing remote attackers to upload arbitrary PHP scripts.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can upload a malicious PHP script to the server, potentially leading to remote code execution, site takeover, or data theft.
Recommendation
Update XOOPS to the latest version and implement file extension filtering in the avatar upload function to allow only safe file types (e.g., images).
