Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in myPHPNuke allowing malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
The problem is that the "aid" parameter isn't properly verified allowing malicious people to inject arbitrary SQL code. This could be exploited to dump the user database to a publicly accesible folder.
This only affects PHP installations without "magic_quotes_gpc" set to "on".
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.8.8.
Solution:
Configure PHP to use "magic_quotes_gpc".
