phpCOIN < 1.2.2 2005-12-13 Fix-File Multiple Vulnerabilities
high Nessus Plugin ID 20300
Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to several vulnerabilities.Description
The remote host appears to be running phpCOIN, a software package for web-hosting resellers to handle clients, orders, helpdesk queries, and the like.The version of phpCOIN installed on the remote host fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the '_CCFG[_PKG_PATH_DBSE]' parameter of the 'config.php' script before using it in a PHP 'require_once' function. Provided PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to exploit this flaw to read arbitrary files on the remote host and/or run arbitrary code, possibly taken from third-party hosts, subject to the privileges of the web server user id.
In addition, the application uses the 'phpcoinsessid' cookie for database queries in the 'coin_cfg.php' script without sanitizing it, which opens the application up to SQL injection attacks provided PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting is disabled.
Solution
Upgrade to 1.2.2 with the 2005-12-13 fix-file or later.See Also
