Description: Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in the PNphpBB2 module for PostNuke, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "c" parameter in the PostNuke installation's index.php script is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) Input passed to the "order" parameter in the PostNuke installation's index.php script is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.2i. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
