IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:

SOFTWARE:
Link Up Gold 2.x

DESCRIPTION:
r0t has reported some vulnerabilities in Link Up Gold, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "link" parameter in "tell_friend.php" and to the
"phrase[0]" parameter in "search.php" isn't 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.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.5 and prior. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
