Description:
Preddy has reported some vulnerabilities in Faq-O-Matic, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed to the "_duration", "file", and "cmd" 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.
Examples:
http://[victim]/fom.cgi?cmd=recent&file=1&showLastModified=show&_submit=Show+documents&_duration=[code]
http://[victim]/fom.cgi?file=[code]&showLastModified=show
http://[victim]/fom.cgi?_insert=answer&cmd=[code]&file=1
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 2.711. Other versions may also be affected.
