Summary:

PHP-Nuke is vulnerable to a denial of service attack, caused by a SQL injection vulnerability in the modules.php script. If a remote attacker sends a series of malformed URL requests to the modules.php script that pass arbitrary SQL parameters, the attacker could consume all available resources, which would cause the server to become inaccessible for a period of time until after the requests are stopped.

Note: This vulnerability also affects PostNuke version 0.721. See References.
