| Detailed Description |
The MyBulletinBoard program is vulnerable to an SQL injection attack via the 'forums[]' parameter. MyBulletinBoard is a freely available forum package developed in PHP and MYSQL. MyBulletinBoard version 1.04 and earlier versions could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands, caused by improper filtering of user-supplied input passed to the 'forums[]' parameter of the 'search.php' script. If PHP's 'register_globals' setting is enabled, this vulnerability could permit a remote attacker to pass malicious input to database queries, potentially resulting in data exposure, modification of the query logic, or even data modification or attacks against the database itself.
