TITLE:
Contenido Cross-Site Scripting and File Inclusion Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA30683

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/30683/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

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

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Contenido 4.x
http://secunia.com/product/19077/

DESCRIPTION:
RoMaNcYxHaCkEr has discovered some vulnerabilities in Contenido,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks, disclose sensitive information, or compromise a
vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "contenido_path" parameter in
contenido/backend_search.php, to the "cfg[path][contenido]" parameter
in contenido/cronjobs/move_articles.php,
contenido/cronjobs/move_old_stats.php,
contenido/cronjobs/optimize_database.php,
contenido/cronjobs/run_newsletter_job.php,
contenido/cronjobs/send_reminder.php,
contenido/cronjobs/session_cleanup.php,
contenido/cronjobs/setfrontenduserstate.php,
contenido/includes/include.newsletter_jobs_subnav.php, and
contenido/plugins/content_allocation/includes/include.right_top.php,
to the "cfg[path][templates]" parameter in
contenido/includes/include.newsletter_jobs_subnav.php and
contenido/plugins/content_allocation/includes/include.right_top.php,
and to the "cfg[templates][right_top_blank]" parameter in
contenido/plugins/content_allocation/includes/include.right_top.php
and contenido/includes/include.newsletter_jobs_subnav.php 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 from external resources requires that
"allow_url_fopen" and "allow_url_include" are enabled.

2) Input passed to the "contenido", "Belang", and "username"
parameters in contenido/index.php is not properly sanitised before
being returned to a 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 4.8.4. Other versions
may also be affected.

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