  <background>
    <p>
    Kronolith is a web-based calendar which relies on the Horde Framework
    for integration with other applications.

  <description>
    <p>
    Kronolith contains a mistake in lib/FBView.php where a raw, unfiltered
    string is used instead of a sanitized string to view local files.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="low">
    <p>
    An authenticated attacker could craft an HTTP GET request that uses
    directory traversal techniques to execute any file on the web server as
    PHP code, which could allow information disclosure or arbitrary code
    execution with the rights of the user running the PHP application
    (usually the webserver user).
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All horde-kronolith users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-apps/horde-kronolith-2.1.4&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
