Title: PHP Other Vulnerability

The readfile function in PHP 4.4.4 5.1.6 and 5.2.1 allows context-dependent attackers to bypass safe_mode restrictions and read arbitrary files by referring to local files with a certain URL syntax instead of a pathname syntax as demonstrated by a filename preceded a quotphp://../../quot sequence.
