TITLE:
Mambo Two Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA31528

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/31528/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Mambo 4.x
http://secunia.com/product/872/

DESCRIPTION:
Khashayar Fereidani has discovered two vulnerabilities in Mambo,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

1) Input passed in the URL to
mambots/editors/mostlyce/jscripts/tiny_mce/filemanager/connectors/php/connector.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.

2) Input passed to the "mosConfig_sitename" parameter in
administrator/popups/index3pop.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.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"register_globals" is enabled, which is not the setting recommended
by the installer.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 4.6.5 and reported in
version 4.6.2. Other versions may also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
