Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Snitz Forums 2000 contains an input validation error, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks against other users.

The function "ReplaceImageTags()" in "inc_func_common.asp" doesn't validate user input in image tags properly. A malicious person can exploit this to insert script code into an image tag by including a horizontal tab char "\t" (ASCII 0x09) into the script command. Script code will be executed in the user's browser session, when the entry is viewed.

Successful exploitation can result in disclosure of various information (eg. cookie-based authentication information) associated with the site running Snitz Forums 2000 or inclusion of malicious content, which the user thinks is part of the real website.
