NFN Address Book mosConfig_Absolute_Path Remote File Include Vulnerability

The NFN Address Book component for Mambo and Joomla is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this issue to include an arbitrary remote file containing malicious PHP code and execute it in the context of the webserver process. This may facilitate a compromise of the application and the underlying systems; other attacks are also possible.
