Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Kubix 0.7 and earlier allow remote attackers to (1) include and execute arbitrary local files via ".." sequences in the theme cookie to index.php, which is not properly handled by includes/head.php; and (2) read arbitrary files via ".." sequences in the file parameter in an add_dl action to adm_index.php, as demonstrated by reading connect.php.
