Description: r0t has discovered two vulnerabilities in CF_Nuke, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and to disclose potentially sensitive information.
1) Input passed to the "sector" and "page" parameters in "index.cfm" isn't properly sanitised before being used to include ".cfm" files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary ".cfm" files that are accessible on the server.
Successful exploitation requires that "Sandbox Security" is not enabled for the directory.
2) Input passed to the "cat", "topic", and "newsid" parameters 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 an affected site.
Successful exploitation requires that "Global Script Protection" is disabled.
The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 4.6. Other versions may also be affected.
