Title: S-CMS SQL Injection and Cookie Authentication Bypass Vulnerabilities
Severity: HIGH
Description:
S-CMS is a web-based application implemented in PHP.
The application is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data to the 'id' parameter of the 'admin/delete_page.php' script file before using it in an SQL query.
The application is also prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability because it fails to adequately verify user-supplied input used for cookie-based authentication. Attackers can gain administrative privileges by manipulating the 'login' cookie parameter that is set when users log in. An attacker may masquerade as an administrator by setting the value of the cookie parameter to 'OK'.
Exploiting the SQL-injection issue could allow the attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. The attacker can leverage the authentication-bypass vulnerability to gain administrative access to the affected application.
S-CMS 1.1 Stable is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
