DESCRIPTION:
A security issue and some vulnerabilities have been reported in
phpCAS, which can be exploited by malicious users to perform certain
actions with escalated privileges and disclose sensitive information
and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
1) The security issue is caused due to an error in the "write()"
function in PGTStorage/pgt-file.php when writing to "PGT Iou" files.
This can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files via symlink
attacks.
2) Certain unspecified input is not properly verified before being
used to read files in the "validatePGT()" function in CAS/client.php.
This can be exploited to read arbitrary files from local resources via
directory traversal sequences.
3) Input passed via the "pgtId" and the "pgtIou" parameters is not
properly sanitised in the "callback()" function in CAS/client.php
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 security issue and the vulnerabilities are reported in versions
1.0.1, 1.1.0, 1.1.1, and 1.1.2.
SOLUTION:
Fixed in the SVN repository. Reportedly, the security issue and the
vulnerabilities will be fixed in the upcoming versions 1.1.3 and
1.2.0.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by Raphael Geissert in a Debian bug.
