Just another flat file (JAF) CMS before 3.0 Final allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via (1) an * (asterisk) in the id parameter, (2) a blank id parameter, or (3) an * (asterisk) in the disp parameter to index.php, which reveals the path in an error message. NOTE: a followup suggests that this may be a directory traversal or file inclusion vulnerability.
