Description

James Gray has reported a vulnerability in Fishyshoop, which allows malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions.

Input passed to the "is_admin" parameter in pages/register/register.php when registering is not properly verified, before it is used to create users. This can be exploited to register as an administrator by setting the "is_admin" parameter to "1".

The vulnerability is reported in version 0.930 beta. Other versions may also be affected.


Solution
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
