[VIM] WTF: Phorm v3.0 Remote File Upload Vulnerability

Another questionable advisory from ilker kandemir:

   Phorm v3.0 Remote File Upload Vulnerability

lists as an exploit:

   http://[site]/[phorm_path]/lib/fileupload.php

Only trouble is, version 3.0 is distributed with a .htaccess file in 
lib/ that prevents direct access to files in that directory. And the 
first line of code in the file reads:

     if (isset($PHP_SELF) && !eregi("^phorm.php", basename($PHP_SELF))) 
return;

While I realize there are ways around this check, the PoC as written in 
the advisory won't do that.
