DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpLDAPadmin, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input appended to the URL in cmd.php (when "cmd" is set to
"_debug") 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 "orderby" parameter in cmd.php (when "cmd" is
set to "query_engine", "query" is set to "none", and "search" is set
to e.g. "1") is not properly sanitised in lib/functions.php before
being used in a "create_function()" function call. This can be
exploited to inject and execute arbitrary PHP code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.2.1.1. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in the GIT repository.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
1) Disclosed in a GIT commit.
2) EgiX
