ATutor <= 2.2 (confirm.php) Session Variable Overloading Vulnerability
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[-] Software Link:
http://www.atutor.ca/
[-] Affected Versions:
Version 2.2 and prior versions.
[-] Vulnerability Description:
The vulnerable code is located in the /confirm.php script:
140. if (isset($_REQUEST['auto_login']))
141. {
142.
143. $sql = "SELECT M.member_id, M.login, M.preferences, M.language FROM %smembers M WHERE M.member_id=%d";
144. $row = queryDB($sql, array(TABLE_PREFIX, $_REQUEST["member_id"]), TRUE);
145.
146. if ($row['member_id'] != '')
147. {
148. $_SESSION['valid_user'] = true;
149. $_SESSION['member_id'] = $_REQUEST["member_id"];
150. $_SESSION['course_id'] = 0;
151. $_SESSION['login'] = $row[login];
This script is intended to be used for the account confirmation. However, its "auto-login" feature
uses the same session variables used to authenticate the user in the whole application, and this
might enable unauthenticated attackers to bypass the authentication mechanism and impersonate
legitimate users by simply knowing their user IDs. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability
might allow an attacker to access the application with the most privileged user, leading to
achieve arbitrary PHP code execution by leveraging further vulnerabilities.

Apply the vendor patches.
