Synopsis
The remote host is vulnerable to multiple attack vectors.Description
The remote host is running the Simple Machines Forum (SMF), a web forum. This version of SMF is vulnerable to a flaw in the way that it handles user-supplied data.- The 'topic' request parameter is used in a database query without proper sanitation. An attacker exploiting this flaw would be able to execute arbitrary SQL code against the remote database.
- The second issue occurs in the 'preparsecode()' function when posting a message with multiple '[html]' tags.
NOTE: both of these issues require credentials in order to exploit.
