Local file inclusion in Axiell Iguana before 4.5.02 allows remote attackers to read server files through its image proxy endpoint. The imageProxy.type.php endpoint resolves traversal sequences supplied in the url parameter without sufficient neutralization. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful requests disclose files readable by the service.
