Synopsis

The discussion forum running on the remote web server has a SQL injection vulnerability.

Description

The remote version of Snitz Forums 2000 is vulnerable to a SQL injection attack. The domain name of the email address passed to the 'Email' parameter of 'register.asp' is not sanitized before being used in a SQL query. A remote attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary SQL queries.
