Description:
Igor Franchuk has reported some vulnerabilities in PhotoPost PHP Pro, which can be exploited to conduct script insertion and SQL injection attacks, bypass certain security restrictions and manipulate potentially sensitive information.
1) Input passed to the "uid" parameter isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) Unauthenticated users can send an unlimited amount of mails to the administrator.
Example:
http://[host]/photopost/misc.php?action=reportpost&report=1&final=1
3) An error allows unauthenticated users to manipulate images via the "adm-photo.php" script.
4) Input passed to the "editbio" biography field and certain unspecified URL fields is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site, when the malicious user data is viewed.
5) An input validation error causes the contents of uploaded images to not be properly verified. This can be exploited to upload a file containing arbitrary script code (e.g. HTML and javascript code), which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when viewed.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 5.0 RC3 up to but not including 5.0.1.
Solution:
The vulnerabilities have reportedly been fixed in version 5.0.1.
