BF Survey Pro Component for Joomla! 'table' Parameter SQLi

high Nessus Plugin ID 40988

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of BF Survey Pro or BF Survey Pro Free for Joomla! running on the remote host is affected by a SQL injection vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'table' parameter in a POST request (when 'task' is set to 'updateOnePage') before using it to construct database queries. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue to manipulate database queries, resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, or other attacks against the underlying database.

Solution

Update to BF Survey Pro version 1.2.6 or later.
