PHProjekt contains a vulnerability in the setup procedure allowing remote users without admin rights to change the configuration.
PHProjekt is a modular groupware web application used to coordinate group activities and share files.
Martin Muench, from it.sec, found a flaw in the setup.php file.
Successful exploitation of the flaw allows a remote attacker without admin rights to make unauthorized changes to PHProjekt configuration.
As a workaround, you could replace the existing setup.php file in PHProjekt root directory by the one provided on the PHProjekt Advisory (see References).
All PHProjekt users should upgrade to the latest version:
