DESCRIPTION:
Gjoko Krstic has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in AContent,
which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion
attacks and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and
SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed via the "p" parameter to
documentation/frame_header.php, the "password_error" parameter to
register.php, the "oauth_token" and "oauth_callback" parameters to
themes/default/login.tmpl.php, and the "id" parameter to
themes/default/user/user_group_create_edit.tmpl.php and
themes/default/language/language_add_edit.tmpl.php is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.

2) Input appended to the URL after multiple scripts is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.

Examples:
http://[host]/themes/default/confirmmessage.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/course_category/index.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/language/index.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/language/language_add_edit.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/login.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/tests/create_edit_test.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/tests/question_cats_manage.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/tests/questions.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/user/index.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/user/user_group.tmpl.php
http://[host]/themes/default/user/user_group_create_edit.tmpl.php

3) Input passed via the "category_name" parameter to
course_category/index.php is not properly sanitised before being
displayed to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML
and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires "Course
category management" permissions.

4) Input passed via the "id" parameter to user/user_create_edit.php,
the "myown_patch_id" parameter to updater/patch_edit.php, and the
"field" parameter to user/index_inline_editor_submit.php,
updater/myown_patches_inline_editor_submit.php, and
language/index_inline_editor_submit.php is not properly sanitised
before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate
SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

5) Input passed via the "query" parameter to
documentation/search.php, the "id" parameter to search.php, the
"oauth_token" parameter to oauth/authorization.php, and the
"consumer" parameter to oauth/register_consumer.php is not properly
sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
