PHP-Fusion faq.php and register.php SQL injection
| phpfusion-faq-register-sql-injection (22532) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
PHP-Fusion is vulnerable to SQL injection. If 'magic_quotes_gpc' is disabled, a remote attacker could send a specially-crafted request to the faq.php script containing embedded SQL commands in the cat_id parameter or to the register.php script containing embedded SQL commands in the activate parameter, which would allow the attacker to add, modify or delete data in the back-end database, and possibly execute arbitrary code on the system.
Platforms Affected:
- PHP-Fusion, PHP-Fusion 6.00.109
Remedy:
Upgrade to the latest version of PHP-Fusion (6.00.110 or later), available from the PHP-Fusion Web site. See References.
Consequences:
Data Manipulation
