TITLE:
PHP-Nuke Nuke Bookmarks Cross-Site Scripting and SQL Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA14715

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/14715/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Nuke Bookmarks 0.x (module for PHP-Nuke)
http://secunia.com/product/4841/

DESCRIPTION:
Gerardo 'Astharot' Di Giacomo has reported some vulnerabilities in
the Nuke Bookmarks module for PHP-Nuke, which can be exploited by
malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection
attacks.

1) Some input isn't 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://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=del_cat&catname=[code]
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=del_mark&markname=[code]
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=edit_cat&catname=[code]
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=edit_cat&catcomment=[code]
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=marks&catname=[code]
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=uploadbookmarks&category=[code]

2) Input passed to the "category" parameter in "modules.php" isn't
properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Example:
http://[victim]/modules.php?name=Bookmarks&file=marks&catname=1&category=[code]

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 0.6. Prior versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 0.7.
