The remote host is running Phpauction or one of its affiliate versions, such as Web2035 Auction. Phpauction is a web-based auction system written in PHP.

The version of Phpauction on the remote host suffers from multiple flaws :

  • Remote Code Execution An attacker can control the ‘lan’ variable used to include PHP code in the ‘index.php’ and ‘admin/index.php’ scripts, which may allow the viewing of arbitrary files on the remote host and execution of arbitrary PHP code, possibly even taken from third-party hosts.

  • Authentication Bypass By setting the cookie ‘PHPAUCTION_RM_ID’ to the id of an existing user, an attacker can bypass authentication.

  • SQL Injection The application does not properly sanitize user-supplied input to the ‘category’ parameter of the ‘adsearch.php’ script before using it in database queries.

  • Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Flaws The application fails to sanitize user-supplied input to several scripts before using it in dynamically- generated pages, which allows for cross-site scripting attacks.
