Title:Gnew <= 2013.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities - Active Check
Summary:Gnew is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
Gnew is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:

script, 'news_id' HTTP POST parameter passed to news/send.php script, 'thread_id' HTTP POST
parameter passed to posts/edit.php script, 'story_id' HTTP POST parameter passed to
comments/index.php script, 'answer_id' and 'question_id' HTTP POST parameters passed to
polls/vote.php script, 'category_id' HTTP POST parameter passed to news/submit.php script,

inject or manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, allowing for the manipulation or
disclosure of arbitrary data.

Affected Software/OS:
Gnew version 2013.1 and probably prior.

Solution:
