CVE-2006-0168
CVE-2006-0169


Description:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has reported some vulnerabilities in MyPHPim, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks, and potentially to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) The problem is that it is possible to upload arbitrary files to a location inside the web root via the "addresses.php3" script.

2) Input passed to the "cal_id" parameter in "calendar.php3" and the password field when logging in isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

3) Input passed to the description field when creating a new todo isn't 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.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 01.05. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised and move the upload directory out of the web root.

Use another product.
