DESCRIPTION:
Stefan Esser has discovered a vulnerability in eFront, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed via the "chatrooms_ID" parameter to ask_chat.php is not
properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.6.2 build 6550. Other
versions may also be affected.
