DESCRIPTION: Cold z3ro has reported a vulnerability in MyPHPCommander, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise vulnerable systems. Input passed to the "gl_root" parameter in system/lib/package.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external resources. Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled. The vulnerability is reported in version 2.0. Other versions may also be affected.
