PHPRank MySQL Error Unauthorized Access Vulnerability
phpRank does not provide sufficient error checking with regards to functions which access the underlying MySQL database. As a result, when the database is inaccessible or temporarily unavailable it is possible for remote attackers to authenticate as any user to phpRank using a null password. This problem occurs because the vulnerable script still attempts to authenticate the user even though authentication data cannot be fetched from the database. |
