Description:
tomplixsee has discovered some vulnerabilities in Simple Forum, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks or to disclose sensitive information.
1) Input passed to the "open" and "date_show" parameters in forum.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 "file" parameter in thumbnail.php is not properly verified before being used to read files. This can be exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files from local resources.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.2. Other versions may also be affected.
