WebPortal CMS <= 0.6.0 Remote Sql Injection Exploit
This exploit takes advantage of a SQL injection vulnerability in the WebPortal CMS <= 0.6.0. By manipulating the 'm' parameter in the URL, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL queries and retrieve sensitive information from the portal_users table. The vulnerability exists in the index.php file where the 'm' parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in a SQL query.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to update to a version of WebPortal CMS that is not affected by this vulnerability. Additionally, ensure that register_globals is turned off, warning messages are enabled, and magic_quotes_gpc is turned on to prevent similar SQL injection attacks.
