Do error messages expose vulnerabillities? 01-27-2013, 06:39 AM
#1
Ok so I am getting this error message and was wondering if it exposed a vulnerability or injection?
MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.
SQL Error:
126 - Incorrect key file for table './philly_database/mybb_sessions.MYI'; try to repair it
Query:
REPLACE INTO mybb_sessions SET `uid`='14404',`sid`='3ad18756ee67857b0c417be7f3df4b2f',`time`='1359264909',`ip`='70.199.109.200',`location`='/index.php?',`useragent`='Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0',`location1`='0',`location2`='0',`nopermission`='0'

I don't know how MyBB security is, but there is a type of SQL Injection that is error based.
Just go in PhpMyAdmin and repair mybb_sessions

That is most likely a vulnerability, and I would suggest removing the part that shows your IP address.
Wavy baby

That isn't a vulnerability, the database is telling you that something went wrong.

It should be common sense, seeing as though there is an IP in it.

'70.199.109.200 = Not my IP lol
Just curious. It is not my site, but would love to see it defaced. I would LOL so hard!
Well I know the site IP is 108.162..196.167, Do you know of any one that is good with MyBB?

MyBB is mostly secure, you're better off waiting around for a 0day to exploit the site before it updates, or tying to look for sites running an old version of MyBB.
