Multiple vulnerabilities were identified in dotProject, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or gain knowledge of sensitive information.

The first issue is due to input validation errors in the "includes/db_adodb.php", "includes/db_connect.php", "includes/session.php", "modules/admin/vw_usr_roles.php", "modules/public/calendar.php" and "modules/public/date_format.php" scripts that fail to properly validate the "baseDir" parameter, which may be exploited by remote attackers to include malicious files and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web server.

The second flaw is due to input validation errors in the "modules/projects/gantt.php", "modules/projects/gantt2.php", "modules/projects/vw_files.php" and "modules/tasks/gantt.php" scripts that fail to properly validate the "dPconfig[root_dir]" parameter, which may be exploited by remote attackers to include malicious files and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web server.

The third flaw is due to an error where the "docs/phpinfo.php" and "docs/check.php" scripts are publicly accessible, which could be exploited by attackers to disclose system information.

The fourth issue is due to input validation errors in various files in the "db" directory that do not properly handle an invalid "baseDir" variable, which may be exploited by attackers to determine the installation path.
