Description  
  
***********  
  
Zone-h Security Team has discovered a flaw in BosDates. There is a vulnerability in the current version (and also in prior versions) of BosDates that allows an attacker to disclose sensitive information that could be used to gain unauthorized access.  
"BosDates is hands-down the MOST feature packed calendar on the market today. The BosDates calendar system is the best full featured calendar system on the market today at half the price of our competitors!"

*******   
  
  
The problems exist due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker may exploit this issue to influence SQL query logic to disclose sensitive information that could be used to gain unauthorized access.  
  
  
For example try this:  
  
http://www.site.com/directory/calendar_download.php?calendar=[query]
