Category: CGI abuses Risk factor: High Added: 10 Oct 2008
Synopsis:

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is prone to a SQL injection attack.

Description:

The remote host is running OpenX (formerly Openads), an open source ad serving application written in PHP.

The installed version of OpenX does not validate user-supplied input to the 'bannerid' parameter of the 'www/delivery/ac.php' script before using it in database queries. Regardless of PHP's 'magic_quotes_gpc' setting, an unauthenticated remote attacker can leverage this issue to manipulate SQL queries and, for example, uncover sensitive information from the application's database or possibly execute arbitrary PHP
code.
