Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test

Synopsis :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by
multiple issues.

Description :

The installed version of Mambo Open Source on the remote host suffers
from the following flaws :

- Session ID Spoofing Vulnerability
An unspecified flaw in the script 'administrator/index3.php'
can be exploited to spoof session IDs.

- Local File Disclosure Vulnerability
The 'includes/DOMIT/testing_domit.php' script may be used
to read the contents of local files such as Mambo's
configuration file, which holds database credentials.

- A SQL Injection Vulnerability
The application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied
input to the 'user_rating' parameter of the
'components/com_content/content.php' script before using
it in SQL statements.

- Multiple Unspecified Injection Vulnerabilities
Various class 'check' methods fail to properly
sanitize input, although it's unknown precisely
what dangers these flaws present.
