SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA26352

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/26352/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive
information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Help Center Live 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/6127/

DESCRIPTION:
Stephan Munz has discovered some vulnerabilities in Help Center Live,
which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.

Various scripts including admin/departments.php and
admin/operators.php do not properly restrict access to logged in
users and can be exploited with an HTTP client that does not follow
redirects.

Successful exploitation allows e.g. deleting administrative users
without having valid user credentials.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.1.3a. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to the admin/ directory (e.g. with an ".htaccess"
file).
