TITLE:
XchangeBoard "boardID" SQL Injection Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA30919

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/30919/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
XchangeBoard 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/12376/

DESCRIPTION:
haZl0oh has discovered a vulnerability in XchangeBoard, which can be
exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to the "boardID" parameter in newThread.php is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows e.g. retrieval of administrator
usernames and password hashes, but requires valid user credentials.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.70 and 1.75 Beta. Other
versions may also be affected.

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