This seems like more of a SQL injection bug.

$admin value "eCcgVU5JT04gU0VMRUNUIDEvKjox" decodes to "x' UNION SELECT 1/*:1"
which will cause the pwd check to be manipulated into union selecting the
valid password.

7.4 Patch can be in auth.php, replace line (about) 61
  if ($aid=="" || $pwd=="") {
with
  if ($aid=="" || $pwd=="" || stristr($aid,'select')) {

I don't know if 7.5 is also vulnerable.
