Description:
 wp-admin/options.php in WordPress MU before 1.3.2, and WordPress 2.3.2 and
 earlier, does not properly validate requests to update an option, which
 allows remote authenticated users with manage_options and upload_files
 capabilities to execute arbitrary code by uploading a PHP script and adding
 this script's pathname to active_plugins.
