Description
***********
Zone-h Security Team has discovered a flaw in PhotoPost PHP Pro. There is a
vulnerability in the current version (and also in prior versions) of PhotoPost
PHP Pro that allows an attacker to disclose sensitive information that could be
used to gain unauthorized access.
"Your community of users represents a wealth of knowledge. Now your users can

*******
The problems exist due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A
remote attacker may exploit these issues to influence SQL query logic to
disclose sensitive information that could be used to gain unauthorized access.
For example try this:
http://address/directory/showproduct.php?product=[query]
http://address/directory/showcat.php?cat=[query]
