CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
PhpWebGallery 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/6487/

DESCRIPTION:
Psych0 has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in PHPWebGallery,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

Input passed to the "cat", "num", and "search" parameters in
category.php and to the "slideshow", "show_metadata", and "start"
parameters 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.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in versions 1.4.1 and 1.5.2.
Other versions may also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
