Description:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has reported some vulnerabilities in EKINboard, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection and script insertion attacks.

1) Input passed in [img] BBcode tags is not properly sanitised before being converted to HTML. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious data is viewed.

2) Input passed to the "$_COOKIE['username']" and "$_COOKIE['password']" variables in config.php is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code e.g. making it possible to bypass the user authentication.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.0.3. Prior versions may also be affected.

The vendor has published instructions for patching the software:
