Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHPcounter, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and conduct SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "l" parameter in defs.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.

2) Input passed to the "name" parameter in 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 requires for both vulnerabilities that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.3.2. Other versions may also be affected.

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