Title: PHP-Nuke Survey Module SQL Injection Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
PHP-Nuke is a popular web based Portal system. It allows users to create accounts and contribute content to the site.
A vulnerability has been reported to exist in PHP-Nuke that may allow a remote attacker to inject malicious SQL syntax into database queries. The source of this issue is insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input.
The problem is reported to exist in the $pollID variable contained within the Survey module. It has been reported that $pollID is not sanitized for user-supplied input before it is included in database queries. A remote attacker may exploit this issue to influence SQL query logic.
A malicious user may influence database queries in order to view or modify sensitive information, potentially compromising the software or the database.
PHP-Nuke version 7.0 FINAL has been reported to be prone to this issue, however other versions may be affected as well.
