Description:
EgiX has reported two vulnerabilities in PhpWebGallery, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system and by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "sort_by" parameter in comments.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 may allow e.g. retrieval of administrator session IDs.
2) Input passed to the "sort" parameter through admin.php to plugins/event_tracer/event_list.php is not properly sanitised before being used in a call to "create_function()". This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid administrator credentials (but see #1).
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.7.2. Prior versions may also be affected.
