Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in Brim (formerly Booby) 1.0.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the renderer parameter to template.tpl.php in (1) barrel/, (2) barry/, (3) mylook/, (4) oerdec/, (5) penguin/, (6) sidebar/, (7) slashdot/, and (8) text-only/ in templates/. NOTE: this can also be leveraged to include and execute arbitrary local files via directory traversal sequences.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy PHP application issue in Brim, formerly Booby, 1.0.1. A web-exposed vulnerable installation could allow an attacker to make the application load attacker-controlled PHP or unintended local files. That can lead to server compromise, but current public sources do not show known active exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running Brim/Booby 1.0.1 or code derived from it on a reachable PHP web server. The supplied affected-product metadata is incomplete, so asset confirmation is necessary. Treat confirmed internet-facing deployments as urgent legacy-risk cleanup. The application is old, the bug class can enable code execution, and public exploit material exists, but evidence of active exploitation is not provided. Mitigation focus: Inventory for Brim or Booby 1.0.1 deployments and forks.; Retire or isolate any confirmed legacy deployment from public access.; Check project or vendor guidance for fixed versions or official remediation..
