DESCRIPTION:
David 'Aesthetico' Vieira-Kurz has reported a vulnerability in
dotWidget CMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "file_path" parameter in "index.php",
"feedback.php", and "printfriendly.php" is not properly verified
before being used to include files. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary PHP code by including PHP files from local or external
resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.0.6. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
