CVE-2007-0853


Description:
Joren McReynolds has reported some vulnerabilities in DevTrack, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks and by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

1) Input passed to form fields, e.g. "Keyword search", when saving search queries is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when the malicious query is loaded.

Successful exploitation requires privileges to save queries as public.

2) Input passed to the "Username" form field when logging in is not properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 6.0.3. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to version 6.2.1.

Provided and/or discovered by:
