http://secunia.com/advisories/product/20198/
DESCRIPTION:
EcHoLL has discovered a vulnerability in the Makale module for XOOPS,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection
attacks.
Input passed to the "id" parameter in makale.php 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. retrieval of administrator
usernames and password hashes, but requires knowledge of the database
table prefix.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 0.26. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
