PHP Melody websites running anything from v2.2 to v2.7.1 are vulnerable to SQL injection and should be patched immediately as instructed below. Alternatively, you can download the v2.7.2 update package form your Customer Account with us.

To manually patch the issue, please open: /include/functions.php

Find:

	$id = ($list_id != false) ? $list_id : $list_uniq_id;
	$get_by_id = ($list_id != false) ? 'list_id' : 'list_uniq_id';

Replace with:

	if ($list_uniq_id != false && ctype_alnum($list_uniq_id) === false)
	{
		return false;
	}
	
	$id = ($list_id != false) ? (int) $list_id : secure_sql($list_uniq_id);
	$get_by_id = ($list_id != false) ? 'list_id' : 'list_uniq_id';

Find:

	$sql = "SELECT list_uniq_id 
			FROM pm_playlists 
			WHERE list_id = $list_id";

Replace with:

	$list_id = secure_sql($list_id);	
	
	$sql = "SELECT list_uniq_id 
			FROM pm_playlists 
			WHERE list_id = $list_id";

Find:

	$sql = 'SELECT * 
			FROM pm_playlists 
			WHERE user_id = '. $user_id;

Replace with:

	$user_id = secure_sql($user_id);
	
	$sql = 'SELECT * 
			FROM pm_playlists 
			WHERE user_id = '. $user_id;

PHP Melody releases before January 26th 2017 are vulnerable to SQL injection and should be patched immediately.

In case you cannot use the official package to update your PHP Melody website(s), simply apply the following changes to patch your site against intrusion. Updating is still required but can be safely postponed to a later date.

Open file: /comment.php

Find:

$user_id = $_POST['user_id'];

Replace with:

$user_id = 0;

If you have Mobile Melody installed:

Open file: /mobile/comment.php

Find:

$user_id = $_POST['user_id'];

Replace with:

$user_id = 0;

For PHP Melody versions v2.5 and later, phpmailer can be easily updated as well.

Download phpmailer.zip and replace your existing /include/phpmailer/ folder with the one form the zip archive.

These two code patches should provide adequate security to your PHP Melody website(s). We do however recommend updating to the latest PHP Melody version to fix any pending bugs.

To download the complete update packages visit your customer account with us. To patch this critical vulnerability, you need to run at least PHP Melody v2.7.1.
