TITLE:
SelectaPix Cross-Site Scripting and SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA20134

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/20134/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
SelectaPix 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/9985/

DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered some vulnerabilities in SelectaPix,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting and SQL injection attacks.

1) Some input is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL
query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

Examples:
http://[host]/view_album.php?albumID=[code]
http://[host]/popup.php?albumID=2&imageID=[code]
http://[host]/index.php?albumID=[code]

• The "username" and "passwd" parameters passed in
  "admin/member.php".

This can further be exploited to bypass the authentication process
and access the administration section.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled
(except for the "albumID" parameter).

2) Input passed to the "albumID" parameter in "popup.php" and
"view_album.php" is not properly sanitised before being returned to
the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script
code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.31. Prior
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.4.
