The Courier Authentication Library is a generic authentication API that
|
|
encapsulates the process of validating account passwords.
|
|
</p>

|
|
<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
It has been discovered that some input (e.g. the username) passed to
|
|
the library are not properly sanitised before being used in SQL
|
|
queries.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could provide specially crafted input to the library,
|
|
possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary SQL commands.
|
|
NOTE: Exploitation of this vulnerability requires that a MySQL database
|
|
is used for authentication and that a Non-Latin character set is
|
|
selected.
