Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in vtiger CRM, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, and to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "description" field in various modules when e.g. creating a contact and the "solution" field when an administrator modifies the solution in the HelpDesk modules isn't properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious user data is viewed.

2) An error in the access control verification can be exploited by a normal user to access administrative modules (e.g. the settings section) by accessing certain URLs directly.

3) Input passed to the "calpath" parameter in modules/Calendar/admin/update.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by including files from local or external resources.

The vulnerabilities have been confirmed in version 4.2.4. Other versions may also be affected.
