Bug affectedSerendipity prior 0.7.0beta3
Bug vulnerability classSQL Injection
Bug descriptionThe remote host is running Serendipity, a weblog written in PHP. The remote version of this software is vulnerable to a SQL injection issue due to a failure of the application to properly sanitize user-supplied URI input. An attacker may exploit this flaw to issue arbitrary statements in the remote database, and therefore bypass authorization or even overwrite arbitrary files on the remote system.
