Arhont Advisory by:	Konstantin Gavrilenko (http://www.arhont.com)
Advisory:               Ph0rum phorum_uriauth replay attack
Class:			design bug ?
Version:		4.3.7
Model Specific:         Other version might have the same bug
Contact Date:           11/05/2004 (email sent to tomaz@...rum.org)
PD* release date:	19/05/2004

DETAILS:

It is possible to relogin into the previously not loged out sessions in 
Ph0rum udner certain conditions. Two criterias have to be fulfilled:
- the member has to leave the phorum without logging out.
- you have to intercept the hash of his not logged out session or grep
   it out of web-seerver logs

~ e.g.
the intercepted URL or taken straight out of the apache logs
http://xxx.xxx.xxx/phorum/profile.php?f=1&id=2&phorum_uriauth=testuser%3Aeb5cd67f6daf1f35d45a24a36355f4b1

post it into mozilla/Opera and you are in. Works both for ph0rum user 
and admin.

maybe it is worthwile to add an auto-expire function for sessions?

Risk Factor: Low/Medium

Workarounds: Always log out :)

and security issues will be reported to the manufacturer 7 days before
