DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in PluXml, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and
cross-site request forgery attacks.
1) Input passed via the "content" POST parameter to
core/admin/article.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 application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without making proper validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change an administrator's
password by tricking an administrator into visiting a malicious web
site while being logged-in to the application.
NOTE: This vulnerability can further be exploited to execute
arbitrary PHP code by passing PHP code via the "content" POST
parameter to core/admin/statique.php.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 5.0.2. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. Do
not browse untrusted web sites or follow untrusted links while being
logged-in to the application.
