/*
i) admin authorization bypass
vulnerable code in symphony/lib/class.admin.php:
------------------[source code]----------------------
function login($username, $password, $already_md5=false, $update=true){
$sql  = "SELECT *\n";
$sql .= "FROM `tbl_authors`\n";
$sql .= "WHERE `username` = '".addslashes($username)."'\n";
$sql .= "AND `password` = '".(!$already_md5 ? md5($password) : $password)."'\n";
$row = $this->_db->fetchRow(0, $sql);
[...]
}
[...]
if(isset($_COOKIE[__SYM_COOKIE__])){
$args = unserialize($_COOKIE[__SYM_COOKIE__]);
$result = $this->login($args['username'], $args['password'], true, false);
}
------------------[/source code]---------------------
password value from cookie is not properly sanitized so the code above is vulnerable
to a SQL-injection which leads to admin authorization bypass.

ii) arbitrary file upload in admin panel
file manager in admin panel allows arbitrary file upload including php scripts. This vuln
is actual only for non-patched version, nevertheless the SQL-injection above works on
patched version too
