Description:
James Bercegay has reported some vulnerabilities in MySQL Eventum, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "id" parameter in "view.php", the "release" parameter in "list.php", and the "F" parameter in "get_jsrs_data.php" is not properly sanitised before being returned to users. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.
2) Certain input passed to the release, report, and authentication classes is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in versions 1.5.5 and prior.
Solution:
Update to version 1.6.0.
