 Details
Description: An input validation vulnerability was reported in phpBB. A remote user can inject SQL commands.

It is reported that the 'profile.php' script does not validate the user id variable 'u' when attempting to display a registered user's profile. A remote user can submit a specially crafted HTTP GET request to inject SQL commands to be executed by the underlying database.

A demonstration exploit URL is provided:

http://[target]/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u='[sqlcode]

Impact: A remote user can inject SQL commands to be executed by the underlying database.

Solution: The report indicates that version 2.0.7 is not affected.
