PHPList is prone to a remote PHP code-injection vulnerability.
An attacker can exploit this issue to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code in the context of the affected application. This may facilitate a compromise of the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.
PHPList 2.10.9 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

# 2) Bug :
# An attacker might execute arbitrary PHP code with this vulnerability.
# User tainted data is embedded into a function that compiles
# PHP code on the run and #executes it thus allowing an attacker to inject
own PHP code that will be
# executed. This vulnerability can lead to full server compromise.
# Look To The File Named (Sajax.php) In Dir (admin/commonlib/lib) On Line
(63)
# 63. $func_name = $_POST["rs"];
# if (! empty($_POST["rsargs"]))
# $args = $_POST["rsargs"];
# else
# $args = array();
# }
#
# if (! in_array($func_name, $sajax_export_list))
# echo "-:$func_name not callable";
# else {
# echo "+:";
# 74. $result = call_user_func_array($func_name, $args);
# echo $result;
# }
# exit;
# }
# So We Have Variable Func Name With Post rs :)
# In Above Of Code We Have $_GET['rs']; So This Is An Attacker Wan't It.
# Look To Line (74).
# Call_User_Func_Array($func_name, $args);
# Attacker Can Inject In Get Paramater Or POST PHP Code.
