VAR-200010-0125

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 13:26

admin.php3 in PHP-Nuke does not properly verify the PHP-Nuke administrator password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges by requesting a URL that does not specify the aid or pwd parameter. PHP-Nuke is a website creation/maintainence tool written in PHP3. It is possible to elevate priviliges in this system from normal user to administrator due to a flaw in authentication code. The problem occurs here: $aid = variable holding author name, pwd = author password $result=mysql_query("select pwd from authors where aid='$aid'"); if(!$result) { echo "Selection from database failed!"; exit; } else { list($pass)=mysql_fetch_row($result); if($pass == $pwd) { $admintest = 1; } } First off, the code checks to make sure the query passed to mysql_query is legal. There are no checks to see whether any rows are returned (whether any authors match $aid..). Then, the password given is compared to the result of the above query. If the author doesn't match, mysql_fetch_row returns FALSE. This is where the problem occurs. A NULL string is logically equal to FALSE and thus if an empty string is supplied as password, the condition tested for above (the if($pass == $pwd)) is met and admintest is set to 1 (TRUE). The user is then able to perform all administrative functions
