Exploitation Summary

EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-2009-1283. PoCs published by Nine:Situations:Group.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit targets a blind SQL injection vulnerability in glFusion <= 1.1.2 via the COM_applyFilter() function in session handling. It uses time-based techniques to extract admin hashes from the database.

Description

glFusion before 1.1.3 performs authentication with a user-provided password hash instead of a password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges by obtaining the hash and using it in the glf_password cookie, aka "User Masquerading." NOTE: this can be leveraged with a separate SQL injection vulnerability to steal hashes.
