Common Vulnerability Scoring System:
====================================
8.9


Abstract Advisory Information:
==============================
An independent security team of the vulnerability laboratory discovered a critical \
sql injection web vulnerability in the official Data Source Scopus Content Management \
System.


Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline:
==================================

Discovery Status:
=================
Published


Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Critical


Technical Details & Description:
================================
A remote sql injection web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Data \
Source Scopus Content Management System. The vulnerability allows remote attacker to \
inject own sql commands to compromise the affected database management system.

The vulnerability is located in the `w` value of the `countrysearch.php` file. Remote \
attackers are able to compromise the  application & dbms by manipulation of the `w` \
value in the `countrysearch.php` file. The issue is a classic order by injection. The \
request method to inject own commands is GET and the issue is located on the \
applicaiton-side of the service.

The security risk of the sql injection vulnerability is estimated as critical with a \
cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 8.9. Exploitation of the remote \
sql injection web vulnerability requires no user interaction or privileged \
web-application user account. Successful exploitation of the remote sql injection \
results in dbms, web-server and web-application compromise.

Request Method(s):
				[+] GET

Vulnerable File(s):
				[+] countrysearch.php

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
				[+] w


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The remote sql injection web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers \
without privileged application user account or user interaction. For security \
demonstration or to reproduce the security vulnerability follow the provided \
information and steps below to continue.

PoC: Example
http://[localhost]/[PATH]/[FILE].php?w=-[SQL INJECCTION VULNERABILITY]'--

PoC: Demonstration
http://www.server.com/countrysearch.php?w=world%27-[SQL INJECCTION VULNERABILITY]'--

Dork(s):
inurl:".php?w="


Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by usage of the preapred statement in connection \
with a secure encode/parse of the w value in the countrysearch.php file. Restrict the \
w value input and filter by disallowing input of special chars or negative values. \
Disable php script error(0);!


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the remote sql injection web vulnerability in the \
countrysearch.php file is estimated as critical.
