DJ-Classifieds Component Script Insertion and File Upload Vulnerabilities SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA39681 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/39681/ DESCRIPTION: Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in the DJ-Classifieds component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks and compromise a vulnerable system. 1) Input passed via the "description" parameter to index.php (when "option" is set to "com_djclassifieds" and "view" is set to "additem") 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. 2) A vulnerability is caused due to the application improperly validating uploaded files. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by uploading a malicious PHP script with multiple extensions. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that Apache is not configured to handle the mime-type for files with an e.g. "pjpeg" extension. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 0.9.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Grant only trusted users access to the affected component.
