Description:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has reported some vulnerabilities in VNews, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system and by malicious people to conduct script insertion and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "loginvar" parameter in "admin/admin.php", the "news" parameter in "news.php", and the "nom" parameter in "news.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.
2) Input passed to the "autorkomentarza" and "tresckomentarza" parameters in "news.php" isn't 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.
3) Some input passed in the administration section when editing variables in "admin/config.php" isn't properly sanitised before being stored. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code.
Successful exploitation requires administrative privileges and that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.2. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
