Title: Xt-News Multiple Input Validation Vulnerabilities
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
XT-News is a web-based news script implemented in PHP.
The application is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.
Specifically, these issues include:
- Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the 'id_news' parameter of the 'show_news.php' and the 'add_comment.php' scripts.
- A SQL-injection vulnerability in the 'id_news' parameter of the 'show_news.php' script.
An attacker could exploit these issues to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.
Affected Products:
- DreaXTeam Xt-News 0.1
