artmedic newsletter 4.1 and possibly other versions, when register_globals is enabled, allows remote attackers to modify arbitrary files and execute arbitrary PHP code via the logfile parameter in a direct request to log.php, which causes the $logfile variable to be redefined to an attacker-controlled value, as demonstrated by injecting PHP code into info.php.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy remote code execution issue in artmedic Newsletter 4.1, and possibly other versions, when PHP register_globals is enabled. An unauthenticated remote attacker could cause attacker-controlled PHP code to be written and executed. The main business risk is full compromise of an exposed legacy web application. Exposure is most likely in old internet-facing PHP sites still running artmedic Newsletter 4.1 or similar versions with register_globals enabled. Modern environments are less likely affected, but legacy shared hosting and abandoned applications should be checked. Prioritize remediation if any affected instance is internet-facing. The vulnerability is old, but remote code execution on a public web server can quickly become a full site or hosting account compromise. Mitigation focus: Identify and remove unsupported artmedic Newsletter deployments.; Disable register_globals where still present.; Restrict direct web access to vulnerable PHP scripts if removal is not immediate..
