Title: Nuked-Klan Forum Module HTML Injection Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

A vulnerability has been discovered in the Nuked-Klan 'Forum' module. It has been reported that Nuked-Klan fails to sufficiently sanitize HTML and script code embedded in certain user-supplied variables. Specifically, the 'Forum' module fails to filter the 'Pseudo' and 'Titre' forum post form fields for malicious input.

As a result, attackers may embed malicious script code or HTML into forum posts. When a malicious post is viewed by another user, the attacker-supplied code will be interpreted in their web browser in the security context of the site hosting the software.

It may be possible to steal the unsuspecting user's cookie-based authentication credentials, as well as other sensitive information. Other attacks are also possible.

Affected Products:

  • Nuked-Klan Nuked-Klan 1.2.0 beta
