Hosting Controller < 6.1 Hotfix 2.2 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Checks for multiple vulnerabilities in Hosting Controller < 6.1 hotfix 2.2

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains an ASP application with multiple flaws.

Description :

According to its version number, the version of Hosting Controller on
the remote host is subject to multiple flaws :

- Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
By accessing the 'editplanopt3.asp', 'planmanager.asp',
and 'plansettings.asp' scripts directly or with specific
parameters, a possible hacker can cause the 'inetinfo.exe'
process to consume a large amount of CPU resources.

- Multiple SQL Injection Vulnerabilities
An authenticated attacker can affect SQL queries by
manipulating input to the 'searchtext' parameter of the
'IISManagerDB.asp' and 'AccountManager.asp' scripts and
the 'ListReason' parameter of the 'listreason.asp'
script.

- Access Rights Vulnerabilities
Several scripts fail to restrict access to privileged
users, which permits non-privileged users to add accounts
with elevated rights and make changes to various
plan settings. Another failure permits users to gain
elevated rights by first accessing the
'dsp_newreseller.asp' script before returning to the
application's homepage.
