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

Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Invision Power Board (IPB), which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks and SQL injection.

Missing input validation in "post.php" can be exploited by injecting arbitrary script code in [FLASH] tags. This can be executed in another user's browser session and may disclose sensitive information (eg. cookie-based authentication information) associated with the site running Invision Power Board or inclusion of malicious content, which the user thinks is part of the real website.

Missing input validation in "ipchat.php" can potentially be exploited by conducting SQL injection attacks. Successful exploitation allows manipulation of existing SQL queries, which may change database content or disclose sensitive information (see "Other References" for examples).
