vAuthenticate 3.0.1 Auth Bypass by Cookie SQL Injection Vulnerability
A vulnerability exists in vAuthenticate 3.0.1, which allows an attacker to bypass authentication by setting the USERNAME and PASSWORD cookies to ' or ' and then using the login.php page for authentication bypass. This is due to the vulnerable code in check.php, which does not properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that untrusted data is not used to construct SQL queries in an unsafe manner.
