Document Title: =============== Data Source: Scopus CMS - SQL Injection Web Vulnerability References (Source): ==================== http://ift.tt/1FrMGY1 Release Date: ============= 2015-02-25 Vulnerability Laboratory ID (VL-ID): ==================================== 1436 Common Vulnerability Scoring System: ==================================== 8.9 Abstract Advisory Information: ============================== An independent security team of the vulnerability laboratory discovered a critical sql injection web vulnerability in the official Data Source Scopus Content Management System. Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2015-02-25: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Critical Technical Details & Description: ================================ A remote sql injection web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Data Source Scopus Content Management System. The vulnerability allows remote attacker to inject own sql commands to compromise the affected database management system. The vulnerability is located in the `w` value of the `countrysearch.php` file. Remote attackers are able to compromise the application & dbms by manipulation of the `w` value in the `countrysearch.php` file. The issue is a classic order by injection. The request method to inject own commands is GET and the issue is located on the applicaiton-side of the service. The security risk of the sql injection vulnerability is estimated as critical with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 8.9. Exploitation of the remote sql injection web vulnerability requires no user interaction or privileged web-application user account. Successful exploitation of the remote sql injection results in dbms, web-server and web-application compromise. Request Method(s): [+] GET Vulnerable File(s): [+] countrysearch.php Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] w Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= The remote sql injection web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without privileged application user account or user interaction.
