Updated

DISPUTED Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in the lmtgmyhomepage Component (comlmtgmyhomepage) for Mambo allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the mosConfigabsolutepath parameter in (1) install.lmtghomepage.php and (2) mtghomepage.php. NOTE: this issue has been disputed by a third party, who states that the $mosConfigabsolutepath variable is only used within a function definition. CVE source code analysis on 20060824 is not conclusive but tends to concur with the dispute. In addition, it appears that the component name is actually "lmtgmyhomepage".
