source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/20741/info phpMyConference is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible. phpMyConference 8.0.2 is vulnerable to this issue. Update: Further analysis reveals that this is not actually a vulnerability, so this BID is being retired. http://www.example.com/{path}/init.php?lvc_include_dir=SHELL
