SB2011022501 - Multiple vulnerabilities in Pixelpost

Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2011-3792)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

Pixelpost 1.7.3 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request to a .php file, which reveals the installation path in an error message, as demonstrated by includes/functions_feeds.php and certain other files.

2) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2011-1100)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed via the (1) findfid, (2) id, (3) selectfcat, (4) selectfmon, or (5) selectftag parameter in an images action. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.

Remediation
