# Exploit Title:   A-Blog v2.0 (sources/search.php) SQL Injection Exploit
# Software Link:   http://sourceforge.net/projects/a-blog/
# Version      :   2.0
# Tested on    :   EasyPHP 5.3.1.0 for Windows with Python 3.1
#
#
# Description
# ===========
#
# + sources/search.php => This few lines of code strip whitespaces from the
#                         beginning and end of the 'words' GET parameter. Then,
#                         all the whitespaces are replaced with %.
#
# 12: if ((array_key_exists('words', $_GET)) && ($_GET['words'] == '')) {
# 13: callback_js("page=results&words=$searchwords");
# 14: }
# 15:
# 16: else{
# 17: if ((array_key_exists('words', $_GET))) {
# 18: $words2 = trim($_GET['words']);
# 19: }
# 20: $search = str_replace(" ", "%", "$words2");
# 21: }
#
#
# + sources/search.php => The string returned from the previous code is used in
#                         the query below without being sanitized.
#
# 33: $sql = "SELECT * FROM site_news WHERE title LIKE '%$search%' OR home_text
#     LIKE '%$search%' OR extended_text LIKE '%$search%'";
# 34: $sql_result = mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die ("Couldnt execute query");
#
#
# + sources/search.php => Then, the results are echoed
#
# 39: while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)){
# 40:
# 41:   $id = $row['nid'];
# 42:   $title = $row['title'];
# 43:   $home = $row['home_text'];
# 44:   $extended = $row['extended_text'];
# 45:  
# 46:   echo "<li><a href='blog.php?view=news&id=$id' title='Read $title'>$title</a></li>";
