TITLE:
ArticleMS "c[]" SQL Injection Vulnerability
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37697
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37697/
DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in ArticleMS, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection and cross-site
scripting attacks.
Input passed via the "c[]" parameter to index.php (when "a" is set to
"search" and "q" is set to any value) is not properly sanitised before
being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL
queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
NOTE: This can further be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks via SQL error messages.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.0 Other versions may also
be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
