DESCRIPTION:
Censored has discovered a vulnerability in MyFAQ, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "Theme", "SousTheme", "Question" and "Faq"
parameters in several scripts (e.g. affichagefaq.php3) isn't properly
sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
