Synopsis
========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in TikiWiki, possibly
resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background
==========
TikiWiki is an open source content management system written in PHP.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-apps/tikiwiki < 1.9.8.3 >= 1.9.8.3
Description
===========
Stefan Esser reported that a previous vulnerability (CVE-2007-5423,
GLSA 200710-21) was not properly fixed in TikiWiki 1.9.8.1
(CVE-2007-5682). The TikiWiki development team also added several
checks to avoid file inclusion.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to inject
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All TikiWiki users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/tikiwiki-1.9.8.3"
