CVE-2006-1478
HighSummary
Directory traversal vulnerability in PHP Live Helper 1.8 allows remote authenticated users to include and execute arbitrary local files via the language cookie. An attacker can upload PHP code in a gl_session cookie to users.php, which is stored in error.log and then included by initiate.php.
Risk Assessment
The risk is remote code execution by an authenticated attacker, potentially leading to full server compromise, data theft, or lateral movement within the internal network.
Recommendation
Immediately update PHP Live Helper to the latest version that fixes this vulnerability. If an update is not possible, restrict access to initiate.php and users.php and disable writing untrusted data to error.log.

- CVE-2026-75816Critical
The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass to Account Takeover in all versions up to and including 3.29.12. The pre_update_value function lacks capability or ownership checks, and ActionPost::conditions_logic() short-circuits the current_user_can('edit_post') authorization gate when the post ID is non-numeric, allowing unauthenticated form submissions to be routed to arbitrary user records. This enables unauthenticated attackers to overwrite any user's email address, including an administrator's, and then use WordPress's native password-reset flow to take over the account.
- CVE-2026-16310Critical
The MemberDash plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to and including 1.8.5 via the 'id' parameter due to missing validation on a user-controlled key. This allows unauthenticated attackers to change the password of any WordPress user, including administrators, by supplying an arbitrary user ID during registration, and take over their account without any notification to the victim.

Original NVD description (English source)
Directory traversal vulnerability in (1) initiate.php and (2) possibly other PHP scripts in Turnkey Web Tools PHP Live Helper 1.8, and possibly later versions, allows remote authenticated users to include and execute arbitrary local files via directory traversal sequences in the language cookie, as demonstrated by uploading PHP code in a gl_session cookie to users.php, which causes the code to be stored in error.log, which is then included by initiate.php.
