TITLE:
miniBB Cross-Site Scripting and SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA29997

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29997/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
miniBB 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/5558/

DESCRIPTION:
__GiReX__ has reported some vulnerabilities in miniBB, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL
injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "lang" parameter in index.php (if "action" is
set to "registernew") 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) Input passed to the "xtr" parameter in index.php (if "action" is
set to "userinfo") is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL
queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

Note: A full path disclosure issue in index.php is also reported.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 2.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.2a.
