Concrete5 5.7.4 SQL Injection Vulnerability

-----------------------------------------------------------
Concrete5 <= 5.7.4 (Access.php) SQL Injection Vulnerability
-----------------------------------------------------------


[-] Software Link:

https://www.concrete5.org/


[-] Affected Versions:

Version 5.7.3.1, 5.7.4, and probably other versions.


[-] Vulnerability Description:

The vulnerable code is located in /concrete/src/Permission/Access/Access.php:

168.  protected function buildAssignmentFilterString($accessType, $filterEntities)
169.  {
170.      $peIDs = '';
171.      $filters = array();
172.      if (count($filterEntities) > 0) {
173.          foreach ($filterEntities as $ent) {
174.              $filters[] = $ent->getAccessEntityID();
175.          }
176.          $peIDs .= 'and peID in (' . implode($filters, ',') . ')';
177.      }
178.      if ($accessType == 0) {
179.          $accessType = '';
180.      } else {
181.          $accessType = ' and accessType = ' . $accessType;
182.      }

The Access::buildAssignmentFilterString() method uses its $accessType parameter to construct a SQL query
without a proper validation at line 181. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary SQL commands.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an account with privileges to edit page permissions.


[-] Solution:

Update to version 5.7.4.1 or later.
