VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/18823/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:


WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
SmE GB Host 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/7949/

DESCRIPTION:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has reported a vulnerability in SmE GB Host,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection
attacks.

Input passed to the username field in "/sme_admin/login.php" isn't
properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows login to the admin interface without
password but requires that the username of the admin user is known
and that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.21. Other versions
may also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu
