Summary:
This event is generated when an attempt is made to exploit a known
vulnerability in the PHP web application YaBB SE.

--
Impact:
Execution of arbitrary code on the affected system

--
Detailed Information:
YaBB SE contains a flaw such that it may be possible for an attacker
to include code of their choosing by manipulating the location of the
script packer.php parameter when making a GET or POST  request 
to a vulnerable system.

It may be possible for an attacker to execute that code with the
privileges of the user running the webserver, usually root.

--
Affected Systems:
	YaBB SE YaBB SE 0.8
	YaBB SE YaBB SE 1.4.1
	YaBB SE YaBB SE 1.5 .0

--
Attack Scenarios:
An attacker can make a request to an affected script and supply their
own code in the packer.php script.

--
Ease of Attack:
Simple. No exploit software required. Exploit code exists.

--
False Positives:
None known

--
False Negatives:
None known

--
Corrective Action:
Apply the appropriate vendor supplied patches

Upgrade to the latest non-affected version of the software
