Simple Machines : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 2.0.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the scheduled parameter to index.php.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in an unspecified component in Simple Machines phpRaider 1.0.7 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the resistance field. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.

SQL injection vulnerability in Load.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands by setting the db_character_set parameter to a multibyte character set such as big5, which causes the addslashes PHP function to produce a "\" (backslash) sequence that does not quote the "'" (single quote) character, as demonstrated via a manlabels action to index.php.

Directory traversal vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.0 before 1.0.15 and 1.1 before 1.1.7 allows remote authenticated users to configure arbitrary local files for execution via directory traversal sequences in the value of the theme_dir field during a jsoption action, related to Sources/QueryString.php and Sources/Themes.php, as demonstrated by a local .gif file in attachments/ with PHP code that was uploaded through a profile2 action to index.php.

Directory traversal vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.0 before 1.0.15 and 1.1 before 1.1.7 allows remote authenticated administrators to install packages from arbitrary directories via a .. (dot dot) in the package parameter during an install2 action, as demonstrated by a predictable package filename in attachments/ that was uploaded through a post2 action to index.php.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.0 before 1.0.15 and 1.1 before 1.1.7 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of admins for requests that install packages via the package parameter in an install2 action.

Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.4 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the (1) settings[default_theme_dir] parameter to Sources/Subs-Graphics.php and (2) settings[default_theme_dir] parameter to Sources/Themes.php. NOTE: CVE and multiple third parties dispute this issue because the files contain a protection mechanism against direct request

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in index.php in OpenCart 0.7.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) firstname and (2) search parameters. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.

Unspecified vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.x before 1.1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.13 has unknown impact and attack vectors, probably cross-site scripting (XSS), related to "use of the html-tag."

Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.x before 1.1.5 and 1.0.x before 1.0.13, when running in PHP before 4.2.0, does not properly seed the random number generator, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Simple Machines Forum (SMF), probably 1.1.4, relies on "randomly generated static" to hinder brute-force attacks on the WAV file (aka audio) CAPTCHA, which allows remote attackers to pass the CAPTCHA test via an automated attack that considers Hamming distances. NOTE: this issue reportedly exists because of an insufficient fix for CVE-2007-3308.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in sboxDB.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) Shoutbox 1.14 through 1.16b allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via strings to the shoutbox form that start with "&#", contain the desired script, and end with ";".

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) Itemid or (2) topic arguments.

Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.4 allows remote attackers to read a message in private forums by using the advanced search module with the "show results as messages" option, then searching for possible keywords contained in that message.

SQL injection vulnerability in Sources/Search.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.3, when MySQL 5 is used, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the userspec parameter in a search2 action to index.php.

Directory traversal vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.3 allows remote attackers to include local files via unspecified vectors related to the sourcedir parameter or the actionArray hash. NOTE: CVE and multiple third parties dispute this vulnerability because both sourcedir and actionArray are defined before use

Unspecified vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code during (1) creation or (2) editing of a message.

Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.2 uses a concatenation method with insufficient randomization when creating a WAV file CAPTCHA, which allows remote attackers to pass the CAPTCHA test via an automated brute-force attack.

Session fixation vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions by setting the PHPSESSID parameter.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1 RC3 allow remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) recipient or (2) BCC field when selecting send in a pm action.

QueryString.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.0.7 and earlier, and 1.1rc2 and earlier, allows remote attackers to more easily spoof the IP address and evade banning via a modified X-Forwarded-For HTTP header, which is preferred instead of other more reliable sources for the IP address. NOTE: the original researcher claims that the vendor has disputed this issue

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in display.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1 Final and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the contents of a file that is uploaded with the image parameter set, which can be interpreted as script by Internet Explorer's automatic type detection.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a base64 encoded params value in the action parameter.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1 RC2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the action parameter.

Simple Machines Forum (SMF) 1.1RCx before 1.1RC3, and 1.0.x before 1.0.8, does not properly unset variables when the input data includes a numeric parameter with a value matching an alphanumeric parameter's hash value, which allows remote attackers to perform directory traversal attacks to read arbitrary local files, lock topics, and possibly have other security impacts. NOTE: it could be argued that this vulnerability is due to a bug in the unset PHP command (CVE-2006-3017) and the proper fix should be in PHP; if so, then this should not be treated as a vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum.
