Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in AlstraSoft Web Host Directory, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks and bypass certain security restrictions.

1) Input passed via the "pwd" parameter to the receiving script in the "login" directory is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

2) The application allows access to the admin interface by checking if a certain cookie exists. This can be exploited to gain administrative access to the application by creating the cookie "adm" and assigning it the value "1".
