DESCRIPTION:
S4mi has discovered a vulnerability in KwsPHP, which can be exploited
by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "newsletter" parameter in index.php (when "mod"
is set to "newsletter") is not properly sanitised before being used
in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.85. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
