OffensiveTrack has discovered a vulnerability and a security issue in Nightfall Personal Diary, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and disclose sensitive information.

1) Input passed to the "username" parameter in login.asp 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 the context of an affected site.

2) The security issue is caused due to database files being stored with insecure permissions inside the web root. This can be exploited to potentially gain access to sensitive information by downloading the database file.

Solution
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
