TITLE:
WB News Two Script Insertion Vulnerabilities
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39516
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39516/
DESCRIPTION:
ITSecTeam has discovered some vulnerabilities in WB News, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion
attacks.
Input passed via the "name" and "message" parameters when posting
comments is not properly sanitised before being displayed to the
user. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code,
which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an
affected site when the malicious comment is viewed.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.3.3. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
