Vt-Forum Lite Multiple Parameter SQL Injection and Cross Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

Description

Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Vt-Forum Lite, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands and scripting code, or disclose sensitive information.
The first flaw is due to input validation errors in various scripts (e.g. "vf_memberdetail.asp") that do not validate certain user-supplied parameters (e.g. "user") before being used in SQL statements, which could be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks.
The second issue is due to input validation errors in various scripts (e.g. "vf_info.asp", "vf_newtopic.asp", "vf_settings.asp", and "vf_replytopic.asp") when processing certain parameters (e.g. "StrMsg" and "Topic_ID"), which could be exploited by attackers to cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the user's browser in the security context of an affected Web site.
The third vulnerability is due to a design error where the "db/forum.mdb" database file is stored insecurely inside the web folder, which could be exploited by attackers to disclose sensitive information.
