Directory traversal vulnerability in rss.php in fuzzylime (cms) 3.01a and earlier, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the p parameter, as demonstrated using content.php, a different vector than CVE-2007-4805.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy fuzzylime CMS flaw that could let a remote attacker make the application load local files through rss.php. Under the stated condition, that file inclusion could lead to code execution. Business risk is highest for old, internet-facing fuzzylime CMS installs still running with magic_quotes_gpc disabled. Exposure is likely limited to legacy fuzzylime CMS deployments, especially public sites running version 3.01a or earlier. The source bundle does not provide CPEs, platform details, or a confirmed vendor patch, so asset discovery is essential. Prioritize discovery and retirement of affected legacy CMS sites. This is not a broad modern platform issue, but any exposed vulnerable instance could create serious compromise risk because the reported impact includes local file execution. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire any fuzzylime CMS 3.01a or earlier installations.; Check vendor or archived project guidance for an official fix or upgrade path.; Restrict public access to rss.php until remediation is confirmed..
