Document Title: =============== Mutualaid CMS v4.3.1 - SQL Injection Web Vulnerability References (Source): ==================== http://www.vulnerability-lab.com/get_content.php?id=1858 Release Date: ============= 2016-06-21 Vulnerability Laboratory ID (VL-ID): ==================================== 1858 Common Vulnerability Scoring System: ==================================== 7.6 Product & Service Introduction: =============================== http://www.mutualaid.org/ Abstract Advisory Information: ============================== An independent vulnerability laboratory researcher discovered a remote sql-injection web vulnerability in the official Mutualaid CMS v4.3.1 content management system. Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2016-06-21: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== High Technical Details & Description: ================================ A remote sql injection web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Mutualaid CMS v4.3.1 content management system. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute own sql commands to compromise the web-applicaation or connected dbms. The vulnerability is located in the `id - nid` parameter of the `article.php` file GET method request. Remote attackers are able to execute sql commands by injection of malicious statements via GET method request. The vulnerability is located on the application-side and the request method to inject/execute is GET. The security vulnerability is a classic order by sql injection in the `id` or `nid` value. The security risk of the sql injection vulnerability is estimated as high with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 7.6. Exploitation of the remote sql injection web vulnerability requires no user interaction or privileged web-application user account. Successful exploitation of the remote sql injection results in database management system, web-server and web-application compromise. Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable File(s): [+] article.php Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] id - nid Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The remote sql-injection web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without privileged user account or user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue. Dork(s): text:"Hosting provided by mutualaid.org" PoC: Exploitation http://localhost:8080/article.php?nid=-[ID]&;'[SQL-INJECTION VULNERABILITY!]-- Reference(s): http://localhost:8080/article.php Solution - Fix & Patch: ======================= The vulnerability can be patched by usage of a secure prepared statement in the vulnerable file GET method request. Restrict the parameter and disallow special chars or escapte the entries permanently. Security Risk: ============== The security risk of the remote sql-injection web vulnerability in the web-application is estimated as high.
