If you could follow up on this and give more details (versions affected)
etc etc; as it stands I'm gonna confirm that viewpage.php hasn't existed
for quite some time and that this is a pretty pointless advisory.

Thanks,

viewpage.php is a part of PHPNuke.
The Script allows an attacker to view all files on the System.

Example:

http://server.com/viewpage.php?file=/etc/passwd

umm, what version of phpNuke is vulnerable to this? as far as I'm
aware, there has not been any viewpage.php since before 5.0...

I beleive this was reported then as well. 
reguardless, this is not true with 6.0

it's repeatable on PHP-Nuke 6.5.
