CVE-2005-3740


Description:
Robin Verton has reported some vulnerabilities in PHP-Fusion, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to the "forum_id" and "thread_id" parameters in "options.php", and the "lastvisited" parameter in "viewforum.php" and "index.php" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

It is also possible to disclose the full path to "subheader.php" by accessing it directly.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 6.00.206 and prior.

Solution:
Apply patch for version 6.00.206.
