CVE-2005-4447

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

SQL injection vulnerability in articles/articles_funcs.php in phpCOIN 1.2.2 allows remote attackers to modify SQL syntax and potentially execute queries in limited circumstances via the rec_next parameter. Although the injection occurs after an ORDER BY clause, a syntax error may disclose error paths in some environments.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves potential disclosure of sensitive system information (e.g., file paths) through error messages, which could facilitate further attacks.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update phpCOIN to the latest version and apply input validation and parameterized queries for the rec_next parameter.

Original NVD description (English source)

SQL injection vulnerability in articles\articles_funcs.php in phpCOIN 1.2.2 allows remote attackers to modify SQL syntax and possibly execute SQL in limited circumstances via the rec_next parameter. NOTE: the original disclosure suggests that command injection is not feasible because the injection occurs after an "ORDER BY" clause, but it is likely that this bug could result in an error message path disclosure due to a syntax error, in some environments. Therefore this is an exposure and should be included in CVE.
