> OVERVIEW
> ========
> phpFormGenerator is an easy-to-use tool to create reliable and efficient 
> web forms in a snap. No programming of any sort is required. Just follow 
> along the phpFormGenerator wizard and at the end, you will have a fully 
> functional web form!
>
> note:
> as stated by the vendor this script is widely used with cPanel
> and other hosting provider solutions.
>
>
>
> DETAILS
> =======
> phpFormGenerator by default installs all directories
> as chmod 777 and will not function if they are not set as such.
>
> in the readme:
> "3. Set read+write+execute file permissions on the 'forms'
> directory and *everything* inside it (including all subdirectories and 
> files)
>
> UNIX:
> chmod -R 777 forms"
>
> in process2.php:
> "please make sure that the forms directory (and everything in it)
> has read+write access. you can achieve this by issuing the following
> command on linux/unix:
> chmod -R 777 forms"
>
>
> researcher note:
> when the applications directories are not set 777 the app errors with:
>
>
> "File and Directory permissions The forms directory is not writeable.
> The forms/admin directory is not writeable.
> The use directory is not writeable.
> Please give read+write permissions to all the files
> and directories mentioned above. Refresh this page
> after you have done so."

> VENDOR RESPONSE
> ===============
> "there are no security flaws ... if you had taken a moment to think,
> you would realize that a a major software company such as cPanel would
> not be shipping phpFormGenerator with their scripts if it had flaws.
> In any case, the program has been thoroughly tested by myself and
> other security experts and is not known to have any issues.
>
> 777 is never forced, the suggested method is to give write permissions
> to the group the process belongs to.
> upload function is "insecure". arbitrary php functions are insecure...
> could you be any more vague? You seem to be one of those ignorant
> nuts who shout slogans like "windows sucks" "linux owns" "your server
> is insecure" without realizing the garbage spooling out of your mouth.

> PROOF OF CONCEPT
> ================
> 1.browse to the default install directory

> 2.create new form with the "file upload" function
>
> 3.complete the form using "Insert data to MySQL database table? = no"
>
> 4.as directed browse to "http://[host]/[appdir]/[newform_name]/form1.html"
>
> 5.upload phpshell type of script
>
> 6.if you supplied an email address, the link will be sent to you
