Description:
John Martinelli has reported some vulnerabilities in HLstats, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed via the URL or the "authpassword" and "authusername" parameters to hlstats.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.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.35. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
Provided and/or discovered by:
John Martinelli
