Details

Symphony CMS suffers from multiple vulnerabilities:

- SQL Injection

The     contentAjaxQuery class suffers from a SQL-Injection vulnerability 
because the request
parameter "query" is used to build a sql query without beeing properly 
sanitized.
In order to exploit this issue, an attaccker must be logged into the 
application as a
non-privileged user.
The following proof-of-concept demostrates this issue by listing users 
credentials:

http://symphony-cms.local/symphony/ajax/query/?field_id=1&query=%27%20union%20select%20username,password,1,2%20from%20sym_authors%20--%20a&types=entry&limit=3000


- Unrestricted file upload

Symphony CMS suffers from an Unrestricted File Upload vulnerability that leads 
to remote
code execution in the context of the web server.
It is possible for a non-privileged user to upload a .php file into the webroot 
and
execute arbitrary php code.
In order to exploit this issue, an attaccker must be logged into the 
application as
a non-privileged user and it must exist at least one "section" with a file 
upload filed.
To reproduce the issue, follow the steps below:

1. As an admin create a Section with a File Upload field
2. Log as an author and create new entry with the newly created section
3. Upload a .php file (ie tmp.php) and load it with the browser
