Site Sift Listings detail.php id Parameter SQL Injection

high Nessus Plugin ID 31790

Synopsis

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

Description

The remote host is running Site Sift, a PHP script for maintaining a web directory.

The version of Site Sift installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'id' parameter before before using it in the 'detail.php' script to construct a database query. Regardless of PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to manipulate database queries, leading to disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, or attacks against the underlying database.

Solution

Unknown at this time.
