TITLE:
Simple Machines Forum BMP Uploads Cross-Site Scripting

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35267

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35267/

DESCRIPTION:
Jacques Copeau has reported a vulnerability in Simple Machines Forum,
which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks.

The vulnerability is caused due to insecure handling of uploaded BMP
image files. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and
script code in a user's Internet Explorer session in the context of
an affected site by uploading malformed BMP files, which are
interpreted by the user's browser as having a "text/html" MIME type.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.1.18. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.19.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
