With the lack of version information in this report it is hard for me to
say if the version I downloaded was already a patched version, or if
(based on previous history of these types of posts) this is just another
bogus report where the reviewer didn't actually look at the code, and
just posted based on the fact that there was a variable used in an
include (require, include_once, require_once, fopen, etc...) call.

Looking at line 36 of the admin.php script you can see the following:

if (isset($include_path))
{
   die("Hacking Attempt!");
}
 
$include_path = dirname(__FILE__);

So... either it is patched in the version I am looking at (unlikely) or
this is a bogus report (like god knows how many others).
