CVE reference:CVE-2007-6622
CVE-2007-6623


Description:
EgiX has discovered two vulnerabilities in ZeusCMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or to conduct SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed in the "Referer" HTTP header to index.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows e.g. retrieving administrator usernames and password hashes, but requires knowledge of the database table prefix.

2) Input passed to the "dir" parameter in image_viewer.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to display directory listings for arbitrary directories.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.3. Other versions may also be affected.

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

Provided and/or discovered by:
EgiX
