Dokeos Blind SQL Injection
The 'curdirpath' parameter in the 'slideshow.php' file of Dokeos 2.2.1 is vulnerable to time-based blind SQL injection. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a malicious payload to the 'curdirpath' parameter. The payload should be crafted in such a way that it will cause the server to pause for a certain amount of time. This can be done by using the 'SLEEP()' function. The attacker can then use a tool like Sqlmap to exploit the vulnerability and retrieve data from the database.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to prevent malicious payloads from being sent to the server. Additionally, the application should be kept up to date with the latest security patches.
