CVE-2007-1766: PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in login/engine/db/profiledit.php in Advanced Login 0.76 and earlie...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes a remote file inclusion flaw in Advanced Login. A remote attacker could make the application load PHP code from a supplied URL through the root parameter, potentially taking control of the vulnerable PHP application. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, vendor patch details, or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is most likely in legacy PHP sites that still deploy Advanced Login 0.76 or earlier and expose login/engine/db/profiledit.php to the internet. The bundle’s structured affected-product metadata is incomplete, so validation should rely on application inventory and filesystem evidence. Prioritize quickly only if Advanced Login is present, especially on an internet-facing PHP site. For organizations without this legacy component, the practical risk is low after inventory confirms absence. Mitigation focus: Identify whether Advanced Login 0.76 or earlier is installed.; Remove or disable the vulnerable Advanced Login component if unused.; Restrict web access to login/engine/db/profiledit.php immediately..
