Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in LightNEasy, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks, disclose sensitive information, manipulate data, or to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "page" parameter in index.php and LightNEasy.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to display the contents of arbitrary files through directory traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

2) Input passed to the "image" and "cache_dir" parameters in LightNEasy/thumbsup.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to copy the contents of arbitrary files to arbitrary locations where they can be read or be used to execute arbitrary PHP code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that "magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

3) Input passed to the "dlid" parameter in index.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

NOTE: Other parameters are reportedly also affected.

4) Input passed to the "page" parameter in index.php and LightNEasy.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.

5) Input passed to the "page" parameter in index.php and LightNEasy.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to create files in arbitrary filesystem locations.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.2.2 (no database and SQLite) before 2008-04-18, except for issue #3 which is reported in version 1.2.2 (SQLite) before 2008-04-18. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to version 1.2.2 downloaded on or after 2008-04-18.

Apply security patch #1.
