Description:
Aliaksandr Hartsuyeu has reported some vulnerabilities in freeForum, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks and to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "X-Forwarded-For" and "Client-Ip" HTTP headers in func.inc.php isn't properly sanitised before being saved to the Data/flood.db.php file. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary PHP code.

2) Input passed to the "name" and "subject" parameters in func.inc.php isn't properly sanitised before being saved. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in an user's browser session in context of an affected site when a malicious message is viewed.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.2. Prior versions may also be affected.
