'PHP Grade Book' Unauthenticated SQL Database Export (CVE-2012-1670)
Mark Stanislav - mark.stanislav@...il.com


I. DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------
A vulnerability exists in admin/index.php that allows for an
unauthenticated user to export the entire application database by accessing
the 'Database Backup' method without restriction. Due to the way sessions
are handled, an attacker can then simply pass the username and
password-hash via cookies to assume the administrative role without ever
knowing the clear-text version of the password.


II. TESTED VERSION
---------------------------------------
1.9.4


III. PoC EXPLOIT
---------------------------------------
http://localhost/phpGradeBook/admin/index.php?action=SaveSQL


IV. SOLUTION
