DESCRIPTION:
[R] has reported two vulnerabilities in the Database module for
Woltlab Burning Board, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "fileid" and "subkatid" parameters in
"info_db.php" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL
query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.
It is reportedly also possible to upload arbitrary files.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.5. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
