  <description>
    <p>
    Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in the Horde Application
    Framework:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>David Collins, Patrick Pelanne and the
    HostGator.com LLC support team discovered that the theme preference
    page does not sanitize POST variables for several options, allowing the
    insertion of NULL bytes and ".." sequences (CVE-2008-1284).</li>
    <li>An
    error exists in the Horde API allowing users to bypass security
    restrictions.</li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    The first vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker to read
    arbitrary files and by remote authenticated attackers to execute
    arbitrary files. The second vulnerability can be exploited by
    authenticated remote attackers to perform restricted operations.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
