DESCRIPTION:
Russ McRee has discovered a vulnerability in TheHostingTool, which
can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection
attacks.

Input passed via arbitrary parameter names to admin/index.php is not
properly sanitised in the "updateResource()" function in
includes/class_db.php before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation requires "Home" permissions in the Admin Area
and requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.2.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.2.3.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Russ McRee, via Secunia.
