path admin/spaw/spaw_control.class.php↗

• → Detect HTTP requests targeting the vulnerable script path with a URL-valued spaw_root parameter, indicating remote file inclusion attempt. ↗
• → The spaw_root parameter is the injection point; monitor GET requests to spaw_control.class.php where spaw_root contains an external URL (http:// or https://). ↗
• → The vulnerable module path is modules/tinycontent/admin/spaw/spaw_control.class.php — alert on any external access to this path. ↗

• · This CVE is noted as probably a duplicate of CVE-2006-4656; detections may overlap with that earlier vulnerability in the same SPAW component. ↗
• · The exploit appends a trailing '?' to the injected URL to nullify the remainder of the include path — detection rules should account for this bypass technique. ↗
