Description:
Sirdarckcat has reported some vulnerabilities in php-revista, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "adodb" parameter in revista/estilo/[style]/index.php isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources.

2) Some input isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Examples:
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]/busqueda_tema.php?id_temas=[code]
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]//busqueda.php?cadena=[code]
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]//autor.php?id_autor=[code]
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]//lista.php?email=[code]
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]//articulo.php?id_articulo=[code]

3) The problem is that it is possible to access the administration section by setting the "ID_ADMIN" and "SUPER_ADMIN" parameters to "1".

4) Some input isn't properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Examples:
http://[host]/revista/estilo/[style]/busqueda.php?cadena=[code]
http://[host]revista/estilo/[style]/lista.php?email=[code]

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.1.2. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
