Some vulnerabilities have been reported in OpenBiblio, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks and by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information and conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Input passed to the parameter "page" in shared/help.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.

2) Input passed to the parameter "tab" in shared/header.php is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled and "register_globals" is enabled.

3) Input passed to multiple parameters (e.g. "LAST" and "FIRST" in staff_del_confirm.php, "name" in theme_del_confirm.php, and "themeName" in admin/theme_preview.php) is not properly sanitised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

4) Input passed to the parameter "sql" in reports/report_criteria.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This allows users with "report" privileges to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Note: A potential information disclosure due to openbiblio/phpinfo.php and various full path disclosure issues are also reported.
