Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in SiteBar, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks, and by malicious users to disclose potentially sensitive information and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "command" parameter in command.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.

2) Input passed to the "dir" parameter in translator.php is not properly sanitised before being used, which can be exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files.

3) Input passed to the "edit" and "value" parameter in translator.php is not properly sanitised before being used in an "eval()" statement or being loaded with the translation library. This can be exploited to inject and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web server.

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #2 and #3 may require admin or translation access.

4) Input passed to the "lang" parameter in integrator.php, the "token", "nid_acl", and "uid" parameters in command.php, and the "target" parameter in index.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to a 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 are reported in version 3.3.8. Prior versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to version 3.3.9.
