Title: DotNetNuke Cross Site Scripting and Information Disclosure Vulnerabilities

Severity: HIGH

Description:

DotNetNuke is an open-source framework for creating and deploying websites.

The application is prone to the following vulnerabilities:

1. A cross-site scripting issue affects the search function in DotNetNuke 4.8 through 5.1.4.

2. An information-disclosure issue allows anonymous attackers to obtain sensitive information about database and assembly versions from the install wizard. The issue affects DotNetNuke 4.0 through 5.1.4

An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. The attacker may also obtain sensitive information.

  • DotNetNuke DotNetNuke 4.0
  • DotNetNuke DotNetNuke 4.3.5
  • DotNetNuke DotNetNuke 4.8.1
