  <description>
    <p>
    Christopher Kunz from the Hardened-PHP Project discovered
    that phpSysInfo is vulnerable to local file inclusion, cross-site
    scripting and a HTTP Response Splitting attacks.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A local attacker may exploit the file inclusion vulnerability by
    sending malicious requests, causing the execution of arbitrary code
    with the rights of the user running the web server. A remote attacker
    could exploit the vulnerability to disclose local file content.
    Furthermore, the cross-site scripting issues gives a remote attacker
    the ability to inject and execute malicious script code in the user's
    browser context or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials.
    The HTTP response splitting issue give an attacker the ability to
    perform site hijacking and cache poisoning.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All phpSysInfo users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-apps/phpsysinfo-2.4.1&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
