Description:
Khashayar Fereidani has discovered some vulnerabilities in Maian Search, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.
1) Input passed to the "keywords" parameters in search.php is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
2) Input passed to the parameters "header", "header2", "header3", "header4", "header5", "header6", "header7", "header8", "header9", and "header10" in admin/inc/header.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to an administrator. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in an administrator's browser session.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.1. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
