VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/30423/
CRITICAL:
Less critical
IMPACT:
Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive information
WHERE:
>From remote
SOFTWARE:
PowerPhlogger 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/425/
DESCRIPTION:
MustLive has discovered a vulnerability in PowerPhlogger, which can
be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "css_str" parameter in edCss.php (when "action"
is set to "edit") 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 allows e.g. retrieving usernames and password
hashes, but requires knowledge of the database table prefix and having
valid user credentials.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.2.5. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
