Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Maian Gallery, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and to bypass certain security restrictions.
1) Input passed to the "keywords" parameter in admin/index.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in an administrative user's browser session in context of an affected site.
2) A vulnerability is caused due to improper access restriction in the admin/index.php script. This can be exploited to bypass the authentication mechanism and gain access to the administration section by setting the "mgallery_admin_cookie" cookie.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 2.0. Other versions may also be affected.
