Two vulnerabilities were identified in FarsiNews, which could be exploited by remote attackers to bypass security restrictions and gain knowledge of sensitive information. These flaws are due to input validation errors in the "index.php" and "show_archives.php" scripts that fail to properly validate the "archive" and "template" parameters, which could be exploited by remote attackers to include and read local files.
