The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the request. This can be exploited to e.g. perform certain administrative actions when a logged-in user visits a malicious site. Successful exploitation allows e.g. to delete package servers, conduct script insertion attacks via censor lists and package manager, and execute arbitrary PHP code by uploading arbitrary modules, but requires a valid user account. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.1.10. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 1.1.11 PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: SimpleAudit team ORIGINAL ADVISORY: http://code.google.com/p/smf2-review/issues/detail?id=10 http://code.google.com/p/smf2-review/issues/detail?id=11 http://code.google.com/p/smf2-review/issues/detail?id=17 http://code.google.com/p/smf2-review/issues/detail?id=42 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- About: This Advisory was delivered by Secunia as a free service to help everybody keeping their systems up to date against the latest vulnerabilities.
