Description:
rgod has discovered some vulnerabilities in Jaws, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "rss_url" parameter in gadgets/RssReader/extras/magpierss/scripts/magpie_slashbox.php is not 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.
2) Input passed to the "searchdata" form field parameter when performing a search is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
Successful exploitation requires that the "Search" gadget is enabled.
The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 0.6.2. Prior versions may also be affected.
