SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

http://secunia.com/advisories/24038/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive
information

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
EQdkp 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/5521/

DESCRIPTION:
Eight10 has discovered a vulnerability in EQdkp, which can be
exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions, disclose sensitive information and manipulate data.

An insecure authentication method in admin/backup/backup.php and
admin/backup/index.php can be exploited to bypass authentication by
passing a "Referer" HTTP header with a URL from the Administration
Panel.

Successful exploitation allows retrieving and editing data from
arbitrary databases and database tables, e.g. changing an
administrator's password hash.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.3.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that authentication is done correctly.
