Smarty before 4.5.8 and 5.x before 5.8.5 PHP Code Injection via extends: Inheritance Cache

Smarty before 4.5.8 and 5.x before 5.8.5 contains a code injection vulnerability where the top-level nocache_hash is never restored during extends:/multi-component template inheritance, leaving it null. Attackers can supply assigned data containing a forged SmartyNocache marker that is copied verbatim into the regenerated PHP cache file, executing arbitrary PHP on include for remote code execution.

An issue was discovered in New Media Smarty before 9.10. Passwords are stored in the database in an obfuscated format that can be easily reversed. The file data.mdb contains these obfuscated passwords in the second column. NOTE: this is unrelated to the popular Smarty template engine product.
