BigTree CMS index.php SQL Injection

high Nessus Plugin ID 69369

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a PHP application that is affected by a SQL injection vulnerability.

Description

The BigTree CMS install hosted on the remote web server fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the application's 'site/index.php' script before using it in a database query.

An unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this issue to manipulate database queries, leading to disclosure of sensitive information or attacks against the underlying database.

Note that the application is also likely to be affected by other vulnerabilities such as a cross-request forgery vulnerability and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, although this plugin has not checked for those.

Solution

Either upgrade to BigTree CMS 4.0 when it is released or replace the file 'core/inc/bigtree/cms.php' with the updated version in GitHub.
