Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in HiveMail up to 1.3 Rc1. Affected is some unknown processing of the file addressbook.update.php of the component Addressbook. The manipulation of the argument _server with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in HiveMail 1.3 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via (1) the contactgroupid parameter in addressbook.update.php, (2) the messageid parameter in addressbook.add.php, (3) the folderid parameter in folders.update.php, and possibly certain parameters in (4) calendar.event.php, (5) index.php, (6) pop.download.php, (7) read.bounce.php, (8) rules.block.php, (9) language.php, and (10) certain other scripts; and allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via (11) the folderid parameter in index.php and (12) possibly other parameters in certain other scripts, because $_SERVER[ PHP_SELF ] is improperly handled.
