DESCRIPTION:
DigiP has reported a vulnerability in the Archin theme for WordPress,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed via the "s" parameter to index.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) The wp-content/themes/archin/js/uploadify/uploadify.php script
improperly validates the extension of an uploaded file. This can be
exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by uploading a PHP file with
an appended ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".gif", or ".png" file extension.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that Apache is
not configured to handle the mime-type for media files with a ".jpg",
".jpeg", ".gif", or ".png" extension (Configured to handle by
default).

The vulnerability is reported in versions 3.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Tom (aka DigiP).
