Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in AvailScript Classmate Script, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks and compromise a vulnerable system.
1) Input passed via the "p" parameter in viewprofile.php is not properly sanitised before being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) A vulnerability is caused due to the "Edit Profile" photo upload functionality not checking file extensions properly. This can be exploited to upload files with arbitrary extensions (e.g. ".php") and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server.
Solution:
Filter malicious characters and character sequences using a web proxy. Restrict the type of uploaded files.
