TITLE:
Quate CMS Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA30377

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/30377/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data, Exposure of system
information, Exposure of sensitive information, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Quate CMS 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/18813/

DESCRIPTION:
Digital Security Research Group have discovered some vulnerabilities
in Quate CMS, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose
and manipulate sensitive information, and by malicious people to
conduct cross-site scripting attacks, disclose sensitive information,
and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "secure_page_path" parameter in
admin/includes/header.php (when "bypass_installed" is set to "1") is
not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be
exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external
resources.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"register_globals" is enabled.

2) Input passed to the "admin_template_default" parameter in
admin/includes/footer.php is not properly verified before being used
to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files
from local resources via directory traversal attacks and URL-encoded
NULL bytes ("%00").

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"register_globals" is enabled and that "magic_quotes_gpc" is
disabled.

3) Input passed to the "dir" parameter in admin/filemanager.php is
not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to
display or edit arbitrary files via directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid
administrator credentials.

4) Input passed in the URL to admin/credits.php, admin/login.php, and
upgrade/index.php 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.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.3.4. Other versions
may also be affected.

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