TITLE:
Webmin / Usermin "search" Cross-Site Scripting

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28827

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28827/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Webmin 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/1115/
Usermin 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/3586/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in Webmin and Usermin, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed to the "search" parameter in webmin_search.cgi 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.

Successful exploitation requires that the target user has valid user
credentials and uses a web browser that does not send "Referer" HTTP
headers when performing meta refreshes (i.e. Mozilla Firefox and
Internet Explorer, among others).

The vulnerability is confirmed in Webmin version 1.390 and Usermin
version 1.320. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not browse untrusted websites while logged on to Webmin or
Usermin.
