ExBB 'exbb[default_lang]' Parameter Local File Include Vulnerability

ExBB is prone to a local file-include vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability using directory-traversal strings to view local files in the context of the webserver process. This may aid in further attacks.

ExBB 0.22 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
