Description:
Bernhard Mueller has reported a security issue and a vulnerability in toendaCMS, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.
1) The problem is that user credentials and session information are stored inside the web root. This can be exploited to disclose usernames, encrypted passwords, and session information for other users.
Successful exploitation requires that a XML database is used.
2) Input passed to the "id_user" parameter in "admin.php" isn't properly verified, before it is used to display files. This can be exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files via directory traversal attacks.
Successful exploitation requires that a XML database is used.
It has also been reported that administrators can upload arbitrary PHP scripts via the image upload functionality.
The security issue and the vulnerability have been reported in versions prior to 0.6.2.
Solution:
Update to version 0.6.2 or later.
