Description:
Fernando Quintero has reported a vulnerability in LinPHA, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error within the "session.php" script. This can e.g. be exploited to bypass the user authentication and gain administrative access via malicious session cookies containing specially crafted SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 0.9.4. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
A fix is available in the CVS repository.
