{"id":"CVE-2008-5186","details":"The set_language_path function in geshi.php in Generic Syntax Highlighter (GeSHi) before 1.0.8.1 might allow remote attackers to conduct file inclusion attacks via crafted inputs that influence the default language path ($path variable).  NOTE: this issue has been disputed by a vendor, stating that only a static value is used, so this is not a vulnerability in GeSHi. Separate CVE identifiers would be created for web applications that integrate GeSHi in a way that allows control of the default language path","modified":"2026-04-10T03:40:20.528023Z","published":"2008-11-21T02:30:00Z","database_specific":{"isDisputed":true},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"http://secunia.com/advisories/32559"},{"type":"FIX","url":"http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=637321"},{"type":"FIX","url":"http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/32070"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://osvdb.org/49488"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2008/11/10/8"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/46271"}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
