CVE reference:CVE-2006-5942
CVE-2006-5943


Description:
Laurent Gaffié and Benjamin Mossé have reported some vulnerabilities in Inventory Manager, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "category" parameter in display/display_results.asp 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 "pictable", "picfield", and "where" parameters in display/imager.asp is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

Provided and/or discovered by:
Laurent Gaffié and Benjamin Mossé

Changelog:
2006-11-17: Updated "Description" section. Corrected affected parameter in vulnerability #2.
2006-11-20: Added CVE reference.
