TITLE:
Symphony SQL Injection and File Upload Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA31293

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/31293/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Manipulation of data, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Symphony 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/19419/

DESCRIPTION:
Raz0r has reported two vulnerabilities in Symphony, which can be
exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system, and
by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed in the "sym_auth" cookie to index.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 of this vulnerability allows e.g. logging in
as administrator without valid administrator credentials.

2) A vulnerability is caused due to missing restrictions on what file
types that users are allowed to upload in the File Manager. This can
be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid
administrator credentials (but see #1).

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.7.01 downloaded before
2008-08-02 and all previous 1.x versions.

SOLUTION:
Apply the vendor's official patch:
