Title: CiviCRM Multiple HTML Injection Vulnerabilities
Severity: HIGH
Description:
CiviCRM is a PHP-based customer relationship manager.
CiviCRM is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it fails fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. The application has protections in place to protect against HTML-injection attacks, however an attacker can bypass these protections by injecting code into adjacent fields. The following combination of fields are affected:
'Name' and 'Description' in the 'Tags' section
'Name' and 'Description' in the 'Groups' section
'Source Notes' and 'Transaction ID' in the 'Contributions' section
'First Name' and 'Last Name' in the 'Contributions' section
'Addt'l Address 1' and 'Addt'l Address 2' in the 'Address' section
Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
CiviCRM 3.1 Beta 1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
