medium Nessus Plugin ID 21558
Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains a PHP script that is affected by a SQL injection issue.Description
The remote host is running Limbo CMS, a content-management system written in PHP.The version of Limbo CMS installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the 'catid' parameter of the 'index.php' script before using it in a database query. An unauthenticated attacker may be able to leverage this issue to manipulate SQL queries to uncover password hashes for arbitrary users of the affected application.
Note that successful exploitation requires that Limbo is configured to use MySQL for its database backend, which is not the default.
Solution
Apply Cumulative Patch v8 to Limbo 1.0.4.2.See Also
