Directory traversal vulnerability in inc/includes.inc in GuppY 4.6.3 allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the selskin parameter to index.php. NOTE: this can be leveraged for remote file inclusion by including inc/boxleft.inc and specifying a URL in the xposbox[L][] array parameter.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
