TITLE:
IPB D2-Shoutbox Module "load" SQL Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA19132

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/19132/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Manipulation of data

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
D2-Shoutbox 4.x (module for IPB)
http://secunia.com/product/8589/

DESCRIPTION:
SkOd has reported a vulnerability in the D2-Shoutbox module for IPB,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection
attacks.

Input passed to the "load" parameter in index.php isn't properly
sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Example:
http://[victim]/index.php?act=Shoutbox&view=saved&load=[code]

The vulnerability has been reported in version 4.2. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
