---------------------------------------------------------------------- Public Beta of CSI and WSUS Integration http://secunia.com/blog/74 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE: New-CMS Script Insertion and Cross-Site Request Forgery Vulnerabilities SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA38631 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/38631/ DESCRIPTION: Alberto Fontanella has discovered some vulnerabilities in New-CMS, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks and by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks. 1) Input passed via the "titolo_0" parameter to index.php (when "pg" is set to "editor_red" and "tipo" is set to "notizia") is not properly sanitised before being displayed to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is viewed. Successful exploitation requires that users have administrative rights on the "News" module. 2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to e.g. assigning administrative rights to users by tricking the administrator into visiting a malicious web site. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.08. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. Do not browse untrusted websites or follow untrusted links while logged in to the application.
