Simo64 has discovered a vulnerability in Scout Portal Toolkit, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "forumid" parameter in "SPT--ForumTopics.php" isnt properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 1.4.0. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
