CVE-2006-1008


Description:
Liz0ziM has discovered some vulnerabilities in N8cms, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to the "dir" and "page_id" parameters in "index.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 "userid" parameter in "mailto.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 an affected site.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 1.12 and have also been reported in versions 1.1 and 1.2. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
