CVE-2008-6814: Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in image_upload.php in the SimpleBoard (com_simpleboard) component 1...

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in image_upload.php in the SimpleBoard (com_simpleboard) component 1.0.1 and earlier for Mambo allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension and an image/jpeg content type, then accessing this file via a direct request to the file in components/com_simpleboard/, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3528.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old but serious web application flaw. A vulnerable SimpleBoard component for Mambo could let a remote attacker upload a file that the server later runs as code. The source bundle does not show active exploitation, but it includes a public exploit reference. Likely exposure is limited to legacy Mambo sites running SimpleBoard com_simpleboard 1.0.1 or earlier with the upload handler reachable from the internet. Treat as high priority only where legacy Mambo and SimpleBoard are still present. For exposed systems, remediation should be prompt because compromise could become server-side code execution. Mitigation focus: Inventory any Mambo sites and confirm whether SimpleBoard com_simpleboard is installed.; Check vendor or project guidance for a fixed release; the source bundle names no patch.; If affected, disable or remove the vulnerable component until remediated..
