Tikiwiki contains a command injection vulnerability which may allow remote execution of arbitrary code.
TikiWiki is an open source content management system written in PHP.
ShAnKaR reported that input passed to the "f" array parameter in tiki-graph_formula.php is not properly verified before being used to execute PHP functions.
An attacker could execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the web server by passing a specially crafted parameter string to the tiki-graph_formula.php file.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All TikiWiki users should upgrade to the latest version:
