Introduction:
=============
Cells-blog is a free but powerful mini-blog system. It can run on any web 
server that can excute PHP script codes.
It comes alone with the SQLite data base so you can copy and play without any 
installation. Any question please first 
check to the FAQ in the Cells official web site. If you still have question, 
you can contact with system manager or 
leave a message in our official webite www.cells.tw

1.1
Multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities  are detected in the Cells Blog v1.1 
Content Management System.
The vulnerability allows an attacker (remote) or local low privileged user 
account to inject/execute own sql commands 
on the affected application dbms without user inter action. Successful 
exploitation of the vulnerability results in dbms 
& application compromise. The sql injection vulnerabilities are located in 
multiple files in the main menu and the bound 
parameters bgid, ptid, fmid & id ...

1.2
Multiple persistent input validation vulnerabilities are detected in the Cells 
Blog v1.1 Content Management System.
The bugs allow remote attackers to implement/inject malicious script code on 
the application side (persistent). 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability can lead to session hijacking 
(manager/admin) or stable (persistent) 
context manipulation. Exploitation requires low user inter action or low 
privileged application user account.
The bugs are located in the add, save & update input fields. The code is 
getting executed on the specific listing 
page of after adding via module. If the attacker for example include persistent 
script code in the album name the 
context will be executed out of the album listing page.

Proof of Concept:
=================
1.1
Multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities  are detected in the Cells Blog v1.1 
Content Management System.
The vulnerability allows an attacker (remote) or local low privileged user 
account to inject/execute own sql commands 
on the affected application dbms without user inter action. Successful 
exploitation of the vulnerability results in dbms 
& application compromise. The sql injection vulnerabilities are located in 
multiple files in the main menu and the bound 
parameters bgid, ptid, fmid & id ...


1.1
The sql injection vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without 
user inter action. For demonstration or reproduce ...

[SQL-INJECTION]--



1.2
The persistent input validation vulnerabilities can be exploited by local low 
privileged user account with low required 
user inter action. For demonstration or reproduce ...

The vulnerability can be reproduce by injecting your own persistent script code 
in the update link field, add name field 
or url save input field. The persistent code will be executed (persistent) out 
of the listing context of the vulnerable module.


Risk:
=====
1.1
The security risk of the sql injection vulnerabilities are estimated as 
critical.

1.2
The security risk of the persistent input validation vulnerabilities are 
estiamted as medium(+)
