Input passed to the "parent_id" parameter in index.php (when "showimage" is set to "1" and "popup" to "comment") 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 the administrator username and password hash, but requires knowledge of the database table prefix and that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled. The vulnerability is reported in version 1.7. Prior versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 1.7.1.
