Title: PHP Arena PAFileDB Rate File Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
PHP Arena paFileDB is an application which allows webmasters to post files for download on a website. It is implemented in PHP and is available for Unix and Linux variants as well as Microsoft Windows operating systems.
paFileDB is prone to cross-site scripting attacks.
An attacker may construct a malicious link to the vulnerable script which contains arbitrary HTML and script code. If this link is visited by a web user, the attacker-supplied code will execute in their web client in the security context of the paFileDB site.
This issue is in the "Rate File" function of the paFileDB script.
An attacker may potentially exploit this to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible.
Affected Products:
- PHP Arena paFileDB 1.1.3
