Title: PHP Permissions Privileges and Access Controls Vulnerability

Overview:

ioncube_loader_win_5.2.dll in the ionCube Loader 6.5 extension for PHP 5.2.4 does not follow safe_mode and disable_functions restrictions which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended limitations as demonstrated by reading arbitrary files via the ioncube_read_file function.
