Description

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in GForge, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to various parameters in forum.php, rss20_newreleases.php, rss20_news.php, rss20_projects.php, rss_sfnewreleases.php, rss_sfnews.php, and rss_sfprojects.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. All scripts are located in the "www/export" directory.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 3.1 to 4.5.19. Other versions may also be affected.
