Affected Products:
----------------------------

DreamAccount 3.1 and prior

Description:
----------------------------

DreamAccount is a membership and subscription software application that is both simple to use and install, 
while remaining affordable enough for even the smallest startup.

Requirements:
----------------------------

register_globals = On

Vulnerability:
----------------------------

Input passed to the "da_path" parameter in "auth.cookie.inc.php" is not
properly verified, before it is used to include files.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by including files from external resources.

Solution:
----------------------------

I think you can fix this bug by replacing the following vulnerable code in the 
"auth.cookie.inc.php" with my one. It should fix the vulnerabilty and solve this
problem.

Vulnerable one:   "require($da_path . "setup.php");"
MajorSecurity fix: "require("setup.php");"

Set "register_globals" to "Off".

Exploitation:
