Overview
phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq is a FAQ system for PHP and MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to External Control of File Name or Path in the PDF export process. An attacker can access sensitive local files by embedding an <img> tag with a src attribute referencing files within the content/ directory. When the PDF is generated, the application attempts to read the referenced file, and if it is not a valid image, the resulting error exposes part of the file's contents in the stack trace to any user who triggers the export. The amount of data disclosed depends on the configuration value for zend.exception_string_param_max_len; a higher value can lead to full file disclosure, including credentials.
