Loudblog id Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Checks for id Parameter SQL injection flaw in Loudblog

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible
to a SQL injection attack.

Description :

The remote host is running Loudblog, a PHP application for publishing
podcasts and similar media files.

The version of Loudblog installed on the remote host fails to sanitize
input to the 'id' parameter of the 'index.php' script before using it
in a database query. This may permit an unauthenticated attacker to
uncover sensitive information such as password hashes, modify data,
launch attacks against the underlying database, etc.

Note that successful exploitation is possible regardless of PHP's
'magic_quotes_gpc' setting.
