Description

A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in qdPM 9.1 and earlier.
An attacker can upload a malicious PHP code file via the profile photo functionality, by leveraging a path traversal
vulnerability in the users['photop_preview'] delete photo feature, allowing bypass of .htaccess protection.
NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-3884.
