Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in SparkleBlog, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection, script insertion and cross-site scripting attacks.
1) Input passed to the "id" parameter in "journal.php" and "year" parameter in "archives.php" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) Input passed to the "id" parameter in "journal.php" 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 a vulnerable site.
3) Input passed to the "name", "email", and "url" parameters in "process.php" when posting a comment isn't properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious comment is viewed.
The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 2.1. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
