TITLE:
evalSMSI Multiple Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA38478

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/38478/

DESCRIPTION:
A weakness and some vulnerabilities have been discovered in evalSMSI,
which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion
attacks and by malicious people to conduct SQL injection, cross-site
scripting attacks, and disclose sensitive information.

1) Input passed to the "query" parameter in ajax.php (when "action"
is set to "question") is not properly sanitised before being used in
SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

2) Input passed while writing comments to assess.php (when "action"
is set to "continue_assess") is not properly sanitised before being
displayed to the user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML
and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site when the malicious data is being viewed.

3) Input passed to the "return" parameter in ajax.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.

4) The weakness is caused due to the application storing password in
the database in clear text.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.1.03.

SOLUTION:
Vulnerabilities #1 and #3 are fixed in version 2.2.00. Grant only
trusted users access to the application.
