Woltlab Burning Board modcp.php Multiple Parameter SQL Injection

medium Nessus Plugin ID 19524

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP script that is prone to SQL injection attacks.

Description

The remote version of Burning Board / Burning Board Lite is prone to SQL injection attacks due to its failure to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'x' and 'y' parameters of the 'modcp.php' script before using it in database queries. Provided an attacker has moderator privileges, these flaws may allow him to uncover sensitive information (such as password hashes), modify existing data, and launch attacks against the underlying database.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
