Checks for multiple SQL vulnerabilities in Moodle < 1.5.3 Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by multiple SQL injection issues. Description : The remote installation of Moodle fails to sanitize user-supplied input to the id' parameter of 'course/category.php' and 'course/info.php' scripts as well as the 'user' parameter of 'iplookup/ipatlas/plot.php' script before using it in database queries. A possible hacker may be able to exploit these issues to launch SQL injection attacks against the affected application, possibly levering them to run arbitrary PHP code on the remote host, subject to the permissions of the web server user id.
