VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/31544/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Active PHP Bookmarks 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/19611/

DESCRIPTION:
Hussin X has discovered a vulnerability in Active PHP Bookmarks
(APB), which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed to the "id" parameter in view_group.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 usernames and
password hashes.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.2.06 and reported in
version 1.1.02. Other versions may also be affected.

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