Title: CodePress Eval Function Script Execution Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
CodePress is a web-based source-code editor implemented in JavaScript.
The application is prone to a script-execution vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'eval' function of the 'codepress.html' script.
Attacker-supplied scripts would run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
This issue affects versions of CodePress prior to 0.9.4.
Affected Products:
- CodePress CodePress 0.9.3
