Secunia Advisory: SA29215  
Release Date: 2008-03-03
Last Update: 2008-03-11

Critical:
Less critical
Impact: Cross Site Scripting
Exposure of system information
Where: From remote
Solution Status: Partial Fix

Software:Flyspray 0.x

CVE reference:CVE-2008-1165 (Secunia mirror)
CVE-2008-1166 (Secunia mirror)



Description:
A vulnerability and a weakness have been reported in Flyspray, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks or identify valid user accounts.

1) Input passed via the "item_summary" parameter to "index.php?do=details" 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) The weakness is caused due to different error messages being returned depending on whether an unsuccessful login attempt is performed with a valid or invalid username. This can be exploited to facilitate brute force attacks and obtain valid usernames.

The vulnerability and the weakness are reported in version 0.9.9.4. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to version 0.9.9.5, which fixes vulnerability #1.

Edit the source code to ensure that a single general error message is returned on a failed login.

Digital Security Research Group
