PNphpBB2 index.php c Parameter SQL Injection

high Nessus Plugin ID 25421

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of PNphpBB2 on the remote host fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in a database query in the 'make_cat_nav_tree()' function in 'includes/functions.php'. Regardless of PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting, an unauthenticated remote attacker can leverage this issue to launch SQL injection attacks against the affected application, including discovery of sensitive data such as password hashes.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
