Title: PostNuke Multiple Input Validation Vulnerabilities
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
PostNuke is a PHP-based content manager.
PostNuke is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities, including cross-site scripting and SQL-injection vulnerabilities, because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
The 'catid', 'sid', and 'file' parameters of the 'modules.php' script are prone to cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
The 'catid' and 'sid' parameters of the 'modules.php' script are prone to SQL-injection vulnerabilities.
A successful exploit of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, steal cookie-based authentication credentials, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database. Other attacks are also possible.
PostNuke 0.76.0 RC2 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
Affected Products:
- PostNuke Development Team PostNuke 0.76.0 RC2
