OpenX ac.php bannerid Parameter SQL Injection
high Nessus Plugin ID 34373
Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to a SQL injection attack.Description
The remote host is running OpenX (formerly Openads), an open source ad serving application written in PHP.The installed version of OpenX does not validate user-supplied input to the 'bannerid' parameter of the 'www/delivery/ac.php' script before using it in database queries. Regardless of PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting, an unauthenticated, remote attacker can leverage this issue to manipulate SQL queries and, for example, uncover sensitive information from the application's database or possibly execute arbitrary PHP code.
Solution
Upgrade to OpenX version 2.4.9 / 2.6.2 or later.See Also
