Where: From remote
Software: phpWebSite 0.x
Description:
David Sopas Ferreira has identified some vulnerabilities in phpWebSite, allowing malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
The problem is that user input passed to certain parameters in "mod/announcements/index.php" and "mod/notes/index.php" isn't properly verified before it is used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in 0.9.x versions.
Solution:
This has been fixed in the CVS repository.
