Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in iScripts AutoHoster, possibly 2.4, allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files via the (1) tmpid parameter to websitebuilder/showtemplateimage.php, (2) fname parameter to admin/downloadfile.php, or (3) id parameter to support/admin/csvdownload.php; or (4) have an unspecified impact via unspecified vectors in support/parser/main_smtp.php.

Analyst readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2013-7190 describes multiple directory traversal flaws in iScripts AutoHoster, possibly version 2.4. A remote attacker could read files the web server can access. For a hosting platform, that may expose configuration, credentials, customer data, or operational files. Public evidence does not confirm current exploitation or an official fix.

Executive priority

Treat this as a legacy-platform exposure review. The business risk is highest if AutoHoster is internet-facing or stores customer hosting data. Prioritize inventory, access restriction, and retirement or vendor-supported remediation.

Technical view

The CVE lists traversal issues in showtemplateimage.php, admin/downloadfile.php, and support/admin/csvdownload.php, tied to tmpid, fname, and id parameters. It also notes an unspecified impact in support/parser/main_smtp.php. Affected version data is imprecise, CVSS is absent, and the source bundle names no vendor remediation.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most likely where legacy iScripts AutoHoster installations, possibly 2.4, remain reachable over the internet or internal networks. The bundle does not provide confirmed CPEs, supported versions, or deployment prevalence.

Exploitation context

The issue was publicly disclosed in December 2013, including a Full Disclosure reference with exploit-related wording. The bundle does not show CISA KEV status or cited evidence of active exploitation.

Researcher notes

Evidence is thin: no CVSS, no CWE, no precise affected-version range, and one component has unspecified impact. Analysis should stay limited to the CVE description and referenced disclosures unless vendor data is found.

Mitigation direction

  • Inventory any iScripts AutoHoster deployments and confirm exact version and support status.
  • Restrict public access to affected admin, support, and websitebuilder PHP paths where possible.
  • Check vendor or maintainer guidance for patches, replacements, or secure upgrade paths.
  • Retire unsupported AutoHoster instances if no vendor-supported fix is available.
  • Review web server permissions to limit sensitive file exposure.

Validation and detection

  • Search asset inventory for iScripts AutoHoster and related PHP paths.
  • Review web access logs for suspicious traversal patterns targeting named parameters.
  • Confirm whether admin and support endpoints require authentication and network restrictions.
  • Inspect file permissions for configuration, credential, and customer data files.
  • Document whether any vendor patch or compensating control is present.
