Description:
Janek Vind has reported some vulnerabilities in vBulletin, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "holidayinfo[recurring]" parameter in admincp/admincalendar.php is not properly sanitised before being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires administrator privileges with access to the calender.
The vulnerability is reported in version 3.7.3.pl1. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 3.7.4 or 3.6.12.
