-\\Vulnerable:
Drupal Drupal  6.9



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

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to view files and execute local scripts in the context of the webserver process. This may aid in further attacks.

Drupal 6.9 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

UPDATE (February 12, 2009): The vendor indicates that they cannot reproduce this issue.  We will update this BID further as more information emerges.

UPDATE (February 18, 2009): The vendor indicates that the issue is not exploitable as described.  This BID is retired.
