In-Depth Analysis

Description
This indicates an attempt to exploit one of several remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in phpBG.

The vulnerabilities can be exploited via a specially crafted URL request to 'intern/admin/other/backup.php', 'intern/admin/', 'intern/clan/member_add.php', 'intern/config/key_2.php' or 'intern/config/forum.php'. The request must have the 'set_depth' parameter set to specify a malicious PHP file from a remote system. As a result a remote attacker can execute arbitrary script code on the web server with the privileges of the server.
 
Impact
System Compromise: remote attackers can gain control of vulnerable systems.
