From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Win2k PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: IIS related Bug description: Remote Format String Bug
During a Pentest, I was searching for sql injection, and noticed that PHP returned the following error http://www.victim.com/cgi-bin/ecust.cfg/php.exe/enduser/std_adp.php?p_admin=1&p_faqid=510' Internal Error -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- File: odbc2.c Line: 211 In Fcn.: sql_prepare Called Fcn.: SQLPrepare() returned -1 Description: 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unclosed quotation mark before the character string ')'. 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 7: Incorrect syntax near ')'. 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.

By entering http://www.victim.com/cgi-bin/ecust.cfg/php.exe/enduser/std_adp.php?p_admin=1&p_faqid=510'A You will notice in that the returned error message shows the 'A Internal Error -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- File: odbc2.c Line: 211 In Fcn.: sql_prepare Called Fcn.: SQLPrepare() returned -1 Description: 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unclosed quotation mark before the character string 'A)'. 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 7: Incorrect syntax near 'A)'. 42000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.

To get the format string you just have to cause an error example http://www.victim.com/cgi-bin/ecust.cfg/php.exe/enduser/std_adp.php?p_admin=1&p_faqid=510> This obviously indicates that the Format String is in the Error Handling process.
