Title: OpenBiblio Multiple Input Validation Vulnerabilities

Severity: HIGH

Description:

OpenBiblio is a web-based library system. It is implemented in PHP.

The application is prone to the following input-validation vulnerabilities:

- An SQL-injection vulnerability affects the 'reset' variable of the 'report_criteria.php' script.

- Multiple cross-site scripting and HTML-injection vulnerabilities reside in the following scripts and parameters:

'staff_del_confirm.php' via the 'UID' parameter
'theme_del_confirm.php' via the 'themeid' parameter

- An HTML-injection vulnerability resides in the 'admin/theme_preview.php' script. Attackers may upload malicious input via the 'themeName' variable in an HTTP POST.

- Multiple local file-include vulnerabilities occur in the following scripts and parameters:

'shared/help.php' via the 'page' parameter
'shared/header.php' via the 'tab' parameter

Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, execute arbitrary local scripts, retrieve potentially sensitive information, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. An attacker with administrative privileges to the application can also inject malicious PHP code that will run with the privileges of the webserver.

These issues affect Openbiblio 0.5.2-pre4 and prior versions.

Affected Products:

  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.2.0
  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.2.1
  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.3.0
  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.5.1
  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.5.2
  • OpenBiblio OpenBiblio 0.5.2-pre4
